• Use the getFullYear() method instead – Smamatti Commented Oct 10, 2011 at 10:14

The getYear method returns the year minus 1900. Use getFullYear:

var y= x.getFullYear()

In some versions of Javascript the getYear method returns a two digit year for years in the 1900-1999 range, and a four digit year outside that range. This applies to Javascript 1.2 and earlier, and all versions of JScript (i.e. Internet Explorer).

This inconsistency means that you would have to analyse the result and change it depending on what the year reasonably could be. If you can't limit the possible rangle of years, it's impossible to tell if a result of 111 means 2011 or if it's actually year 111.

"getYear is no longer used and has been replaced by the getFullYear method."
