How to format $.now() with Jquery

Question

$.now() gives me the time as miliseconds. I need to show it something like hh:mm:ss

How can I do that in Jquery?

Answer 1

I'm way late to this, but thought i'd just throw this little snippet out there for the masses. This is something I use just to get a quick localized timestamp. It's pretty clean and handy.

function getStamp() {
    var d = new Date();

    var mm = d.getMilliseconds(), hh = d.getHours(),
        MM = d.getMinutes(), ss = d.getSeconds();

    return (hh < 10 ? "0" : "") + hh + (MM < 10 ? ":0" : ":") + MM + (ss < 10 ? ":0" : ":") + ss + ":" + mm;
};
