var timeStart = new Date("01/01/2007 " + "08:30:20 AM");
var timeEnd = new Date("01/02/2007 " + "05:30:30 PM");


function datediff(fromDate,toDate,interval) { 
  /*
                 * DateFormat month/day/year hh:mm:ss
                 * ex.
                 * datediff('01/01/2011 12:00:00','01/01/2011 13:30:00','seconds');
                 */
  
  var second=1000, minute=second*60, hour=minute*60, day=hour*24, week=day*7; 
  fromDate = new Date(fromDate); 
  toDate = new Date(toDate); 
  var timediff = toDate - fromDate; 

  if (isNaN(timediff)) return NaN; 
  switch (interval) { 
    case "years": return toDate.getFullYear() - fromDate.getFullYear(); 
    case "months": return ( 
      ( toDate.getFullYear() * 12 + toDate.getMonth() ) 
      - 
      ( fromDate.getFullYear() * 12 + fromDate.getMonth() ) 
    ); 
    case "weeks"  : return Math.floor(timediff / week); 
    case "days"   : return Math.floor(timediff / day);  
    case "hours"  : return Math.floor(timediff / hour);  
    case "minutes": return Math.floor(timediff / minute); 
    case "seconds": return Math.floor(timediff / second); 
    default: return undefined; 
  } 
}


$("#start").text(timeStart);
$("#end").text(timeEnd);
$("#diff").text(timeEnd - timeStart);
$("#sec").text(datediff(timeStart, timeEnd, 'seconds') % 60);
$("#min").text(datediff(timeStart, timeEnd, 'minutes') % 60);
$("#hr").text(datediff(timeStart, timeEnd, 'hours'));

div{
    background-color:yellow;
}

Time Start: 


Time End: 


Difference: 


Seconds: 


Minutes: 


Hours:
