If you really mean JavaScript, then you are in the wrong place.  This 
newsgroup deals with the Java language, not JavaScript.  Those are two 
entirely different languages.  This similarity in names is unfortunate.

The "time" value used by the java.util.Date class is a long value equal 
to the number of milliseconds since the start of the "epoch", which is 
January 1, 1970 at 0:00 UT.  So to add an hour, you would have to add 
1000 * 60 * 60, or 3,600,000.

You can also use the java.util.Calendar class to manipulate date/time 
values.  It is hard to say which is more appropriate without knowing 
the details of your application, but I suspect that either approach 
will work for you.
