setUTCDate (Date.setUTCDate method)
public setUTCDate(date:Number) : Number
Sets the date for the specified Date object in universal time and returns the new time in
milliseconds. Calling this method does not modify the other fields of the specified Date
object, but Date.getUTCDay() and Date.getDay() can report a new value if the day of the
week changes as a result of calling this method.
Parameters
date:Number - A number; an integer from 1 to 31.
Returns
Number - An integer.
Example
The following example initially creates a new Date object with today's date, uses
Date.setUTCDate() to change the date value to 10, and changes it again to 25:
var my_date:Date = new Date();
my_date.setUTCDate(10);
trace(my_date.getUTCDate()); // output: 10
my_date.setUTCDate(25);
trace(my_date.getUTCDate()); // output: 25
