Get future date using Javascript

I am trying to get the date which is 14th of January,2014 in Javascript but it is returning invalid date.

var clock;
$(document).ready(function () {
    var currentDate = new Date();
    var futureDate = new Date(currentDate.setFullYear(2014,17,1) + 1, 0, 1);
    alert(futureDate);
});

Any future date in JavaScript (postman test uses JavaScript) can be retrieved as:

var dateNow = new Date();  
var twoWeeksFutureDate = new Date(dateNow.setDate(dateNow.getDate() + 14)).toISOString();

//Note it returns 2 weeks future date from now.

You can try

var futureDate = new Date(2014,0,14);

setFullYear() method sets the full year for a specified date according to local time.

dateObj.setFullYear(yearValue[, monthValue[, dayValue]])

here the middle one parameter is month value in which you are passing 17 which is not making sense and its converting into next year.

So You probably want this

var futureDate = new Date(currentDate.setFullYear(2014,0,14));
