JavaScript getMilliseconds() Method
 JavaScript Date Object
Definition and Usage
The getMilliseconds() method returns the milliseconds of a time.
Syntax
| dateObject.getMilliseconds() |
Tips and Notes
Note: The value returned by getMilliseconds() is a three digit number. However, the return value is not
always three digits, if the value is less than 100 it only returns two digits, and if the value is less than 10 it only returns one digit.
Note: This method is always used in conjunction with a Date object.

<script type="text/javascript">
var born=new Date("July 21, 1983 01:15:00");
document.write(born.getMilliseconds());
</script>
|
The output of the code above will be:
Try it yourself »
|
Note: The code above will set milliseconds to 0, since no milliseconds was defined in the date.
