Answer 1

I had exactly the same problem, so I took askmike's code and modified it slightly.

var nonce = new (function() {

    this.generate = function() {

        var now = Date.now();

        this.counter = (now === this.last? this.counter + 1 : 0);
        this.last    = now;

        // add padding to nonce
        var padding = 
            this.counter < 10 ? '000' : 
                this.counter < 100 ? '00' :
                    this.counter < 1000 ?  '0' : '';

        return now+padding+this.counter;
    };
})();

use it like this

nonce.generate();
