Add two dates times together in javascript

Question

I am trying to add two dates:

date start Fri Apr 26 2013 16:08:03 GMT+0100 (Paris, Madrid)
+  
date periode Fri Apr 26 2013 00:10:00 GMT+0100 (Paris, Madrid         


        

Answer 1

Convert datePeriod to milliseconds instead of making it into a date object for your addition.

You need to convert the sum to a date. getTime() is in milliseconds since 1-1-1970. So you want to do.

var ending = new Date();
ending.setTime(dateEnd);
console.log(ending);

setTime will set the date properly for you.
