How do you display JavaScript datetime in 12 hour AM/PM format?
(31 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have simple code for 12hr format time
// This function gets the current time and injects it into the DOM
function updateClock() {
// Gets the current time
var now = new Date();
// Get the hours, minutes and seconds from the current time
var hours = now.getHours();
var minutes = now.getMinutes();
var seconds = now.getSeconds();
// Format hours, minutes and seconds
if (hours > 12) {
hours = hours - 12;
}
if (minutes < 10) {
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if (seconds < 10) {
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
// Gets the element we want to inject the clock into
var elem = document.getElementById('clock');
// Sets the elements inner HTML value to our clock data
elem.innerHTML = hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds ;
}
I want to add AM/PM please help me thanks in advance
Im just beginner on javascript
After editting your own code:
// Get the hours, minutes and seconds from the current time
var hours = now.getHours();
var minutes = now.getMinutes();
var seconds = now.getSeconds();
var amOrPm = 'AM';
// Format hours, minutes and seconds
if (hours > 12) {
amOrPm = 'PM';
hours = hours - 12;
}
if (minutes < 10) {
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if (seconds < 10) {
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
// Gets the element we want to inject the clock into
var elem = document.getElementById('clock');
// Sets the elements inner HTML value to our clock data
elem.innerHTML = hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds + ' ' + amOrPm;
Try this...
var ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
then
elem.innerHTML = hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds + ' ' + ampm;
I don't know if you want to code it by yourself, but there is a really really great library which handles everything with date stuff you can imagine.
Just checkout momentjs.
It's an easy AF lib to transform dates (also in pm/am).
If you've any question :) just comment ...

I am getting back a time in total nanoseconds from an api. I need to be able to print out a time in the format HH:MM:SS:ms:ns. An example output would be "12:34:56.123456789".
JavaScript Date object only supports for the millisecond so what would be the best way to do this?
Desired functionality:
Input: 38145999999999
Output: 10:36:41.999999999
Here's function which will solve your problem:
function msToTime(duration) {
var milliseconds = parseInt((duration%1000)/100)
, seconds = parseInt((duration/1000)%60)
, minutes = parseInt((duration/(1000*60))%60)
, hours = parseInt((duration/(1000*60*60))%24);
hours = (hours < 10) ? "0" + hours : hours;
minutes = (minutes < 10) ? "0" + minutes : minutes;
seconds = (seconds < 10) ? "0" + seconds : seconds;
return hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + "." + milliseconds;
}
I have 2 timestamps
var startTimestamp = 1488021704531;
var endTimestamp = 1488022516572;
I need the difference between these timestamps in hours and minutes using javascript but without using moment.js.
Means the output should in hours and minutes like for ex:(02h 13min).
Do provide some more context or in depth information of the solution you have up to now. That said, I understand the need/question of your second part "hours/minutes/seconds"; below is some context on that, or read up on it at milliseconds to time in javascript.
That being said,
You could just either try subtracting, as in end - start.. as in following code example.
var startTimestamp = 1488021704531;
var endTimestamp = 1488022516572;
document.write(endTimestamp - startTimestamp + '<br/>');
This will output 812041 - which are the milliseconds.
If you want to convert those milliseconds to the known format of hh:mm:ss.ms you can try the following code by example - also on jsfiddle.
var startTimestamp = 1488021704531;
var endTimestamp = 1488022516572;
document.write(endTimestamp - startTimestamp + '<br/>');
document.write(millisecondsToHoursMinutesSeconds(endTimestamp - startTimestamp));
document.write('<hr/>');
function millisecondsToHoursMinutesSeconds(ms) {
var milliseconds = parseInt((ms%1000)/100)
, seconds = parseInt((ms/1000)%60)
, minutes = parseInt((ms/(1000*60))%60)
, hours = parseInt((ms/(1000*60*60))%24);
hours = (hours < 10) ? "0" + hours : hours;
minutes = (minutes < 10) ? "0" + minutes : minutes;
seconds = (seconds < 10) ? "0" + seconds : seconds;
return hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + "." + milliseconds;
}

I have the following piece of JavaScript which currently displays a digital clock on my webpage. I am creating a web based interactive story which is based on a day in the office. Everytime the user clicks a button to proceed onto the next part of the story I want to increment the clock by 30 minutes. Currently the clock is just showing real time. Ideally it would need to start at 9:00 am for the story then increment as the user goes through.
I have absolutely no idea how to do this and am fairly new to JavaScript, hopefully someone can help!
function displayTime() {
var currentTime = new Date();
var hours = currentTime.getHours();
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
var meridiem = "am"; // Default is AM
if (hours > 12) {
hours = hours - 12; // Convert to 12-hour format
meridiem = "PM"; // Keep track of the meridiem
}
if (hours === 0) {
hours = 12;
}
if(hours < 10) {
hours = "0" + hours;
}
if(minutes < 10) {
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if(seconds < 10) {
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
var clockDiv = document.getElementById('clock');
clockDiv.innerText = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + meridiem;
}
displayTime();
setInterval(displayTime, 1000); });
To start at 09:00 o'clock, you could use
var d = new Date();
d.setHours(9);
d.setMinutes(0);
d.setSeconds(0);
Then, I would recommend using moment.js
function onClick() {
d = moment(d).add(30, "minutes").toDate();
var el = document.getElementById('clock');
el.innerHTML = moment(d).format("HH:mm:ss");
}
You can also do it without moment.js
function pad(t) {
return t < 10 ? "0" + t : t;
}
function onClick() {
d.setMinutes(d.getMinutes() + 30);
var h = d.getHours();
var m = d.getMinutes();
var s = d.getSeconds();
var time = pad(h) + ":" + pad(m) + ":" + pad(s);
document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = time;
}

Working code (jquery), but you need to modify it according to your needs,
function displayTime(currentTime, hours, minutes, seconds) {
var meridiem = "am"; // Default is AM
if (hours > 12) {
hours = hours - 12; // Convert to 12-hour format
meridiem = "PM"; // Keep track of the meridiem
}
if (hours === 0) {
hours = 12;
}
if (hours < 10) {
hours = "0" + hours;
}
if (minutes < 10) {
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if (seconds < 10) {
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
$('#clock').text(hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + meridiem);
}
$(function() {
var currentTime = new Date();
var hours = currentTime.getHours();
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
displayTime(currentTime, hours, minutes, seconds);
$('#increment30').on('click', function() {
currentTime.setMinutes(currentTime.getMinutes() + 30);
var hours = currentTime.getHours();
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
displayTime(currentTime, hours, minutes, seconds);
});
});

Hi here is another one try here http://jsfiddle.net/Ltq9dhaw/ :
var time = new Date();
time.setHours(9);
time.setMinutes(0);
time.setSeconds(0);
function displayTime() {
var hours = time.getHours();
var minutes = time.getMinutes();
var seconds = time.getSeconds();
var meridiem = "am"; // Default is AM
if (hours > 12) {
hours = hours - 12; // Convert to 12-hour format
meridiem = "PM"; // Keep track of the meridiem
}
if (hours === 0) {
hours = 12;
}
if(hours < 10) {
hours = "0" + hours;
}
if(minutes < 10) {
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if(seconds < 10) {
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
var clockDiv = document.getElementById('clock');
clockDiv.innerText = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + meridiem;
}
document.querySelector('#add').addEventListener('click',function(){
var minutes = 30;
time = new Date(time.getTime() + minutes*60000);
displayTime();
});
displayTime();
I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring here too.
var date = new Date(); // create a new Date object
date.setHours(9); // set it to 09:00:00
date.setMinutes(0);
date.setSeconds(0);
setInterval(function(){ // loop...
date.setSeconds(date.getSeconds()+1); // increment the seconds by 1
var str = ''; // build up a formatted string from the Date object
var h = date.getHours();
var m = date.getMinutes();
var s = date.getSeconds();
str += h.toString().length==1 ? '0' : ''; // if we have a single digit, prepend with a '0'
str += h;
str += ':'
str += m.toString().length==1 ? '0' : ''; // and again
str += m;
str += ':'
str += s.toString().length==1 ? '0' : ''; // and again
str += s;
$('#time').html(str); // set the element with ID 'time' to contain the string we just built
}, 1000); // ... every second
$('#increment').click(function(){ // when i click the element with id 'increment'
date.setMinutes(date.getMinutes()+30); // add 30 minutes to our Date object
});
Note that you will need to include jQuery on your page.
You can do that with the following snippet:
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
Since you are using jQuery you can keep it simple:
function fmt2(v){return v<10?'0'+v:''+v;}
$(function(){
var t=new Date();t.setHours(9);t.setMinutes(0);t.setSeconds(0);
var offset=t.getTime() - new Date().getTime();
function displayTime(){
var currentTime= new Date((new Date()).getTime()+offset);
var hours = currentTime.getHours();
var meridiem=hours>=12?"PM":"AM";
hours=hours%12;
if (hours==0) hours=12;
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
$('#clock').text( fmt2(hours)+':'
+fmt2(minutes)+':'
+fmt2(seconds)+' '+meridiem);
}
$('#newtime').click(function(){offset+=60*30*1000;});
setInterval(displayTime,1000);
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="clock">09:00:00 AM</div>
<a id="newtime" href=#>add time</a>
I am working basically with the real time but there is an offset applied to it. The offset is calculated such, that the clock will always start at 9:00 AM.
I have a javascript code set into my webpage but the date time is always two hours off. If anyone knows what's wrong please help.
Here's my relevant JavaScript code:
function show() {
var Digital = new Date()
var hours = Digital.getHours()
var minutes = Digital.getMinutes()
var seconds = Digital.getSeconds()
var dn = "AM"
if (hours > 12) {
dn = "PM"
hours = hours - 12
}
if (hours == 0) c
hours = 12
if (minutes <= 9)
minutes = "0" + minutes
if (seconds <= 9)
seconds = "0" + seconds
document.dform.currenttime.value = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + dn
setTimeout("show()", 1000)
}
show();
You have a c right here:
if (hours==0)c
Delete the c. It works. You're welcome.
I suggest proofreading your code before you come asking for help, but more importantly you should format your code so that it's legible enough to proofread. As an example:
function show() {
var Digital = new Date();
var hours = Digital.getHours();
var minutes = Digital.getMinutes();
var seconds = Digital.getSeconds();
var dn = "AM";
if(hours > 12) {
dn = "PM";
hours -= 12;
}
if(hours == 0) hours = 12;
if(minutes <= 9) minutes = "0" + minutes;
if(seconds <= 9) seconds = "0" + seconds;
document.dform.currenttime.value = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + dn;
}
var clock = setInterval(show, 1000);
This is easier to read and you likely would've noticed the erroneous c.
Let me first say I do not have a deep understanding of javascript but I know how to work my way around enough to write small scripts for pages. A client of mine needs me to do the following for a website:
Find the user's local time on their computer.
Take that local time and subtract it from 6pm.
Display that time in a countdown or just a statement letting the user know how much time is left for same day shipping.
After 6pm the time resets or disappears until the next business day.
So far I've been able to create the logic for getting the time from the local computer. I thought I'd be able to use datejs but it does not calculate hours in a day.
Here is the current code I have:
var currentTime = new Date()
var hours = currentTime.getHours()
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes()
var suffix = "AM";
if (hours >= 12)
{
suffix = "PM";
hours = hours - 12;
}
var suffix = "AM";
if (hours >= 12)
{
suffix = "PM";
hours = hours - 12;
}
if (hours == 0)
{
hours = 12;
}
if (minutes < 10)
minutes = "0" + minutes;
document.write("<b>" + hours + ":" + minutes + " " + suffix + "</b>");
How about this:
var currentTime = new Date()
var hours = currentTime.getHours()
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes()
var suffix = "AM";
if (hours >= 12) {
suffix = "PM";
hours = hours - 12;
}
if (minutes < 10)
minutes = "0" + minutes
if (suffix == "PM" && hours >= 6)
{
document.write("You're too late for next day shipping!");
}
else
{
var hoursLeft = 5 - hours;
var minsLeft = 60 - minutes;
document.write("<b> You've got " + hoursLeft + " hours and " + minsLeft + " minutes left to qualify for next day shipping! </b>")
}
if this site would let me comment on other people's answers I'd give the credit for this to Giovanni, but since I can't yet comment on other people's work, here's what needs to change.
var currentTime = new Date()
var hours = currentTime.getHours()
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes()
var suffix = "AM";
if (minutes < 10)
minutes = "0" + minutes
if (hours >= 18)
{
document.write("You're too late for next day shipping!");
}
else
{
var hoursLeft = 17 - hours;
var minsLeft = 60 - minutes;
if(minsLeft==60){
minsLeft=0;
hoursLeft++;
}
document.write("<b> You've got " + hoursLeft + " and " + minsLeft + " minutes left to qualify for next day shipping! </b>")
}
The reason for this is that people who are ordering at 5AM might see think that they have to submit within the next hour for their shipping to be next day when in fact they have the next 13 hours.
EDIT: saw your timezone concern and here is a post that might interest you.
EDIT 2: posted the wrong link. The correct one should be up now, though it might be a bit of a dated answer.
Something similar I solved also yesterday, so this is easy. Here is the javascript code:
function start_onload(last_hour){
var timeout_message = document.getElementById('timeout_message');
var currentTime = new Date();
var hours = currentTime.getHours();
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
var expire_time = 0; // in seconds
if (hours<last_hour) {
expire_time += (last_hour-hours-1)*3600;
expire_time += (59-minutes)*60;
expire_time += (59-seconds);
}
else {
timeout_message.innerHTML = 'It\'s after '+last_hour+' o\'clock!';
return;
}
var expire_time = currentTime.getTime() + 1000*expire_time;
//console.log(expire_time, hours, minutes, seconds, expire_time);
function countdown_session_timeout() {
var current_time = new Date().getTime();
var remaining = Math.floor((expire_time - current_time)/1000);
if (remaining>0) {
hours = Math.floor(remaining/3600);
minutes = Math.floor((remaining - hours*3600)/60);
seconds = remaining%60;
timeout_message.innerHTML = 'Countdown will stop in '+ hours + ' hours ' + minutes + ' min. ' + seconds + ' sec.';
setTimeout(countdown_session_timeout, 1000);
} else {
timeout_message.innerHTML = 'Time is up!';
}
}
countdown_session_timeout();
}
Full script # pastebin.com is here.
This is a simple countdown timer starting at 30 seconds from when the function is run and ending at 0. After reaching 0 it automatically reset the counter. It goes again to 30 second and this process is continued in a loop
window.onload = function() { startCountDown(30,
1000, myFunction); }
function startCountDown(i, p, f) { var pause = p; var fn = f;
var countDownObj = document.getElementById("countDown");
countDownObj.count = function(i) {
//write out count
countDownObj.innerHTML = i;
if (i == 0) {
//execute function
//fn();
startCountDown(30, 1000, myFunction); //stop
return; } setTimeout(function() {
// repeat
countDownObj.count(i - 1);
},
pause
); } //set it going countDownObj.count(i); }
function myFunction(){};
</script>
