I found a bug in the easter calculator. Try this pattern 2009 calculate 2013 calculate 2014 calculate 2013 calculate 2013 will give you two different easter dates. This is because your java script d(), the golden number can be 0 which is not accounted for in outputing the answer. Anyway I would suspect the calculator may not always give you the correct dates for other non 0 examples too. Thought you would like to look into this.

Date: Monday April 13,2009 Time:12:13 pm Re: Easter Sunday, Thank Goodness, for the easter calculator. Because, the days inwhich easter falls on can be so confusing to so may who don't understand the spring equinox of March 21.

The above statement about when Easter occurs is incorrect. Spring equinox often occurs on March 20, and therefore Easter, according to your formula, could be as early as March 21.
