Finding the number of seconds and milliseconds

Format #9: Finding the number of seconds and milliseconds

getSeconds() and getMilliseconds() return the seconds and milliseconds values.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

var d = new Date();
var curr_hour = d.getHours();
var curr_min = d.getMinutes();

var curr_sec = d.getSeconds();
var curr_msec = d.getMilliseconds();

document.write(curr_hour + ":" + curr_min + ":" 
+ curr_sec + ":" + curr_msec);

//-->
</script>

Prints:

Format #10: GMT Time

Each of the methods discussed so far calculates time on the client-side (browser). JavaScript also supplies us, similar methods for finding the GMT (called the Universal Coordinated Time or UTC).

• getUTCDate(): Date
• getUTCMonth(): Month
• getUTCFullYear(): Year (4 digit)
• getUTCDay(): Day
• getUTCHours(): Hours
• getUTCMinutes(): Minutes
• getUTCSeconds(): Seconds
• getUTCMilliseconds(): Milliseconds

You can use these methods to find the GMT and format it based on scripts discussed before.
