    Javascript Objects: More Date Methods - Putting the Three Together


    (Page 3 of 5 )

    You can put the hour, minutes, and seconds together of course (as well as the other units of time). Here is a quick program to demonstrate how to do so:


    <html>

    <body>

    <script type="text/javascript">

    var time = new Date()

    document.write("The time is currently: ")

    document.write(time.getHours())

    document.write(":")

    document.write(time.getMinutes())

    document.write(":")

    document.write(time.getSeconds())

    </script>

    </body>

    </html>

    This would result in the print out:

      The time is currently: 18:23:08

    Of course we could always get really anal and add milliseconds to that as well:


    <html>

    <body>

    <script type="text/javascript">

    var time = new Date()

    document.write("The Present time is: ")

    document.write(time.getHours())

    document.write(".")

    document.write(time.getMinutes())

    document.write(".")

    document.write(time.getSeconds())

    document.write(".")

    document.write(time.getMilliseconds())

    </script>

    </body>

    </html>

    And the fantastic result is:

      The Present time is: 14.12.34.750
