javascript: new date, missing year
<p>I called new Date("Jan 4")
and found the default year is 2001</p>

<pre><code>a=new Date("Jan 4")
Thu Jan 04 2001 00:00:00 GMT-0500 (EST)
</code></pre>

<p>Is there any way that I can set the default year to be 2011?</p>

<hr>

<p>update:
I know that I can use + 2011
but since I have some "Jan 4", and some "Jan 4, 2008"
I only want to use 2011 for the former case.</p>

<p>However, I realize that if you do Date("Jan 4, 2008 2011") the year will be 2008 but not 2011. That's just what I need.
I will mark the first answer correct anyway. </p>
