• day

  Two-digit day value (from 01 to 31).

Return Value

Notes

• The difference between the d() and fj() functions is that d() requires a date to be supplied as three separate parameters, in a very specific format: yyyy,mm,dd, (such as d( 2015, 12, 25)). fj(), by contrast, accepts a single date parameter whose format is flexible.
