Display day of the week with Javascript date

Question

I am using the code below to display a date 7 days in the future. However this javascript code formats the date by mm/dd/yyyy.

I would like to modify the javascript code below to have it display the day of the week instead such as Friday, Nov 1

I do not need it to display the year.

Any help would be much appreciated as I am stumped.

<script>
var myDate=new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate()+7);
var n=myDate.toLocaleDateString();
document.write(n);
</script>

Answer 1

try this , adding 1 week from current day output you get is :Friday,November 1

<script >
<!--

var m_names = ["January", "February", "March", 
"April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", 
"October", "November", "December"];

var d_names = ["Sunday","Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", 
"Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];

var myDate = new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate()+7);
var curr_date = myDate.getDate();
var curr_month = myDate.getMonth();
var curr_day  = myDate.getDay();
document.write(d_names[curr_day] + "," + m_names[curr_month] + " " +curr_date);

//-->
</script>
