title: What is the need for the javascript function getUTCFullYear()?
body: <p>Is there any real case where getUTCFullYear() differs from getFullYear() in javascript?</p>
  
  <p>The same goes for:</p>
  
  <p>getUTCMonth() vs getMonth() </p>
  
  <p>getUTCDate() vs getDate()</p>
  
  <p>Am I missing something here?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>See <a href="http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6408-10/date.htm#1193940" rel="noreferrer">getUTCFullYear() documentation</a>.</p>
