Script to compute "Next anniversary"

[Foogasm]

Writing a program that takes in user input, and tells how many years remain until the next anniversary. We were told to compute it after March 2, 2011.

Here's what I have thus far:

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class QuestionOne {
public static void main(String [] args) {


String marriageYear = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,
"What year did you get married in?","Year",JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);

int intYear = Integer.parseInt(marriageYear);

String marriageMonth = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,
"What month?","Month",JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);

int intMonth = Integer.parseInt(marriageMonth);

String marriageDay = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,
"What day?","Day",JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);

int intDay = Integer.parseInt(marriageDay);


String output = "Wedding date: "+intMonth+"/"+intDay+"/"+intYear;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, output + "\nNext anniversary: ","Date"
,JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
}
}

I've read through the text and can't seem to think of a way to do the formula, any pointers?

This is the JavaScript forum. Java and Javascript are entirely different programming languages, in spite of the confusingly similar names. Rather like Austria and Australia! Ask a mod to move this thread to the right forum.

Generally (and whatever language) there is less than a year before the next anniversary!
