function MainFunction()
{
        var fromDateString = "12/01/2011";
        var monthCount = 4;
	// True means it will add months
	// False means it will subtract months
        var isAdd = true; 
 
	var newDate = GetNewDate(fromDateString, monthCount, isAdd);
 
        var newYear = newDate.getFullYear();
        var newMonth = newDate.getMonth() + 1; // Note: getMonth 00 for Jan and 11 for Dec
	var newDay = newDate.getDay();
 
 
}    
// Add or Subtract given count from given date
function GetNewDate(dateString, monCount, isAdd) {
 
	//uncomment below line if you need result this way: Jan-March difference is 3
        // monCount = monCount - 1; 
        var d = dateObj;
        if (isAdd) {
            d.setMonth(d.getMonth() + monCount);
        }
        else {
            d.setMonth(d.getMonth() - monCount);
        }
        return d;
    }
