date.getDaysInMonth(new Date(2006, 2, 1)); //31
date.getDaysInMonth(new Date(2006, 3, 1)); //30

date(new Date(2006, 4, 1)).getDaysInMonth().value(); //31
date(new Date(2006, 5, 1)).getDaysInMonth().value(); //30
date(new Date(2006, 6, 1)).getDaysInMonth(); //31
```

var d1 = new Date(), d2 = new Date();
d1.setHours(0);
d2.setFullYear(2005);
d2.setHours(12);

date.compare(d1, d2, "date"); // 1
date(d1).compare(d2, "datetime"); // 1

var d1 = new Date(), d2 = new Date();
d1.setHours(0);
d2.setFullYear(2005);
d2.setHours(12);

date(d2).compare(d1, "date"); // -1
