My webpage timenite.com/item-shop shows a countdown that resets every day at 5:30 AM IST, I want to make a similar page in the directory timenite.com/xx and set it to reset every week on Thursdays at 8:30 PM IST.
Below is the script of what is being used currently on the item-shop page, there were actually two script files but I have combined them into one, just in case.
Help would be appreciated, thank you.

I want to implement a simple javascript countdown that always counts down to the user's local next Friday, 15:00. I currently use the following code, but I believe that it only displays the countdown to next Friday, 15:00 UTC. Any help would really be appreciated!!
var curday;
var secTime;
var ticker;
function getSeconds() {
var nowDate = new Date();
var dy = 5; //Sunday through Saturday, 0 to 6
var countertime = new Date(nowDate.getFullYear(), nowDate.getMonth(), nowDate.getDate(), 15, 0, 0);
var curtime = nowDate.getTime(); //current time
var atime = countertime.getTime(); //countdown time
var diff = parseInt((atime - curtime) / 1000);
if (diff > 0) {
curday = dy - nowDate.getDay()
} else {
curday = dy - nowDate.getDay() - 1
} //after countdown time
if (curday < 0) {
curday += 7;
} //already after countdown time, switch to next week
if (diff <= 0) {
diff += (86400 * 7)
}
startTimer(diff);
}
function startTimer(secs) {
secTime = parseInt(secs);
ticker = setInterval("tick()", 1000);
tick(); //initial count display
}
function tick() {
var secs = secTime;
if (secs > 0) {
secTime--;
} else {
clearInterval(ticker);
getSeconds(); //start over
}
var days = Math.floor(secs / 86400);
secs %= 86400;
var hours = Math.floor(secs / 3600);
secs %= 3600;
var mins = Math.floor(secs / 60);
secs %= 60;
//update the time display
document.getElementById("days").innerHTML = curday;
document.getElementById("hours").innerHTML = ((hours < 10) ? "0" : "") + hours;
document.getElementById("minutes").innerHTML = ((mins < 10) ? "0" : "") + mins;
document.getElementById("seconds").innerHTML = ((secs < 10) ? "0" : "") + secs;
}
function starter() {
getSeconds();
}
Javascript dates are inherently UTC, however the various non–UTC get and set methods all work on local dates and times based on the host system clock and daylight saving settings.
So if you're not using UTC methods, everything in the OP is "local" by default. The following is a simplistic implementation of your "time until next Friday at 15:00" all as local values:
function timeUntil() {
let now = new Date();
// Create date for 15:00 on coming Friday
let friday = new Date(now);
friday.setHours(15,0,0,0);
let dayNum = friday.getDay();
friday.setDate(friday.getDate() + 5 - (dayNum < 6? dayNum : 5 - dayNum));
// If today is Friday and after 15:00, set to next Friday
if (dayNum == 5 && friday < now) {
friday.setDate(friday.getDate() + 7);
}
// Time remaining
let diff = friday - now;
let days = diff / 8.64e7 |0;
let hrs = (diff % 8.64e7) / 3.6e6 | 0;
let mins = (diff % 3.6e6) / 6e4 | 0;
let secs = (diff % 6e4) / 1e3 | 0;
// Display result
document.getElementById('days').textContent = days;
document.getElementById('hrs').textContent = hrs;
document.getElementById('mins').textContent = mins;
document.getElementById('secs').textContent = secs;
document.getElementById('fullDate').textContent = friday.toLocaleString();
}
setInterval(timeUntil, 1000);
td {
text-align: center;
}
<table>
<tr><th>Days<th>Hrs<th>Mins<th>Secs
<tr><td id="days"><td id="hrs"><td id="mins"><td id="secs">
<tr><td id="fullDate" colspan="4">
</table>
Note that setInterval isn't a good way to run a timer over a long period as it drifts (it doesn't run at exactly the specified interval). The overall time will be OK, it will just seem to skip from time to time and drift within a second with respect to the system displayed clock.
Better to use sequential calls setTimeout, calculating the time until just after the next full second each time so it closely matches the system clock's tick.
I'm trying to create a counter that shows how much time you've spent on the site and I use sessionStorage to access the Date object from multiple pages.
The problem is that the counter starts at 01:00:00 even though I initialized the Date with 00:00:00.
Here is my code:
function checkTime(){
if(document.getElementById("clock")[13] == ''){
var d = new Date('2010-06-11T00:00:00');
sessionStorage.setItem('time', d);
}
}
function updateTime(){
checkTime();
var nDate = new Date(sessionStorage.getItem('time'));
nDate.setSeconds(nDate.getSeconds() + 1);
sessionStorage.setItem('time', nDate);
var hours = (nDate.getHours()<10 ? "0" : "") + nDate.getHours();
var minutes = (nDate.getMinutes()<10 ? "0" : "") + nDate.getMinutes();
var seconds = (nDate.getSeconds()<10 ? "0" : "") + nDate.getSeconds();
var timeString = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
document.getElementById("clock").innerText = timeString;
}
setInterval(updateTime, 1000);
It starts at 01:00 due to your timezone (UTC +1 CET Central European Time, Stockholm).
Create your date in the following manner:
const utcDate = new Date(Date.UTC(2019, 5, 11, 0, 0, 0)); // second param is the month-index, it start at 0, so 5 means june
console.log(utcDate);
Why don't use the unix timestamp, is really more simple and timezone free.
When user enter on the website
var d = new Date().getTime();
sessionStorage.setItem('time', d);
then
function updateTime(){
var nDate = new Date().getTime();
var startDate = sessionStorage.getItem('time');
var duration = nDate-startDate;
var seconds = Math.floor((duration / 1000) % 60),
minutes = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60)) % 60),
hours = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60 * 60)) % 24);
hours = (hours < 10) ? "0" + hours : hours;
minutes = (minutes < 10) ? "0" + minutes : minutes;
seconds = (seconds < 10) ? "0" + seconds : seconds;
var timeString = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
document.getElementById("clock").innerText = timeString;
}
setInterval(updateTime, 1000);
How to parse a given amount of milliseconds (e.g. 125230.41294642858) into a time format like: minutes:seconds?
var ms = 125230.41294642858,
min = 0|(ms/1000/60),
sec = 0|(ms/1000) % 60;
alert(min + ':' + sec);
Try the following
var num = Number(theTextValue);
var seconds = Math.floor(num / 1000);
var minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
var seconds = seconds - (minutes * 60);
var format = minutes + ':' + seconds
Number.prototype.toTime = function(){
var self = this/1000;
var min = (self) << 0;
var sec = (self*60) % 60;
if (sec == 0) sec = '00';
return min + ':' + sec
};
var ms = (new Number('250')).toTime();
console.log(ms);
=> '0:15'
var ms = (new Number('10500')).toTime();
console.log(ms);
=> '10:30'
Even though moment.js does not provide such functionality, if you come here and you are already using moment.js, try this:
function getFormattedMs(ms) {
var duration = moment.duration(ms);
return moment.utc(duration.asMilliseconds()).format("mm:ss");
}
This workaround in moment was introduced in this Issue.
I have two HTML input boxes, that need to calculate the time difference in JavaScript onBlur (since I need it in real time) and insert the result to new input box.
Format example: 10:00 & 12:30 need to give me: 02:30
Thanks!
Here is one possible solution:
function diff(start, end) {
start = start.split(":");
end = end.split(":");
var startDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, start[0], start[1], 0);
var endDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, end[0], end[1], 0);
var diff = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();
var hours = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60 / 60);
diff -= hours * 1000 * 60 * 60;
var minutes = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60);
// If using time pickers with 24 hours format, add the below line get exact hours
if (hours < 0)
hours = hours + 24;
return (hours <= 9 ? "0" : "") + hours + ":" + (minutes <= 9 ? "0" : "") + minutes;
}
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/KQQqp/
Try This
var dif = ( new Date("1970-1-1 " + end-time) - new Date("1970-1-1 " + start-time) ) / 1000 / 60 / 60;
tl;dr
One off run
const t1 = new Date(1579876543210) // your initial time
const t2 = new Date(1579987654321) // your later time
const diff = t2-t1
const SEC = 1000, MIN = 60 * SEC, HRS = 60 * MIN
const humanDiff = `${Math.floor(diff/HRS)}:${Math.floor((diff%HRS)/MIN).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})}:${Math.floor((diff%MIN)/SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})}.${Math.floor(diff % SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 4, useGrouping: false})}`
console.log("humanDiff:", humanDiff)
// > humanDiff: 30:51:51.0111
As a function
function humanDiff (t1, t2) {
const diff = Math.max(t1,t2) - Math.min(t1,t2)
const SEC = 1000, MIN = 60 * SEC, HRS = 60 * MIN
const hrs = Math.floor(diff/HRS)
const min = Math.floor((diff%HRS)/MIN).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})
const sec = Math.floor((diff%MIN)/SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})
const ms = Math.floor(diff % SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 4, useGrouping: false})
return `${hrs}:${min}:${sec}.${ms}`
}
const t1 = new Date(1579876543210)
const t2 = new Date(1579987654321)
console.log("humanDiff(t1, t2):", humanDiff(t1, t2))
// > humanDiff: 30:51:51.0111
Explanation
Adjust humanDiff for your maximum and minimum reportable increments and formatting needs:
const t1 = new Date(1579876543210) // Set your initial time (`t1`)
const t2 = new Date(1579986654321) // , conclusion time (`t2`), and
const diff = t2-t1 // calculate their difference in milliseconds
console.log(" t2:", t2.toISOString()) // > t2: 2020-01-25T21:27:34.321Z
console.log(" t1:", t1.toISOString()) // > t1: 2020-01-24T14:35:43.210Z
console.log(" diff:", diff) // > diff: 111111111
// Set your constant time values for easy readability
const SEC = 1000
const MIN = 60 * SEC
const HRS = 60 * MIN
/* For a given unit
1) disregard any previously relevant units, e.g. to calculate minutes, we can
disregard all hours & focus on only the remainder - `(diff%HRS)`
2) divide the remainder by the given unit, e.g. for minutes, `(diff%HRS)/MIN`
3) disregard any remainder, e.g. again for minutes, `Math.floor((diff%HRS)/MIN)`
NOTE: for your maximum unit (HRS in the examples below) you probably _don't_
want to disregard high values, e.g. If the difference is >24 hrs and something,
you should either include a DAYS value, or simply display 30 hrs */
let hrs = Math.floor(diff/HRS)
let min = Math.floor((diff%HRS)/MIN)
let sec = Math.floor((diff%MIN)/SEC)
let ms = Math.floor(diff % SEC) // just the remainder
// BUT ms IS NOT ACTUALLY CORRECT, see humanDiff_3 for the fix ;-)
let humanDiff_1 = `${hrs}:${min}:${sec}.${ms}`
console.log("humanDiff_1:", humanDiff_1)
// > humanDiff_1: 30:51:51.111
sec = Math.round((diff%MIN)/SEC) // can also just round the last unit
const humanDiff_2 = `${hrs} hrs ${min} mins & ${sec} secs`
console.log("humanDiff_2:", humanDiff_2)
// > humanDiff_2: 30 hrs 51 mins & 51 secs
/* To ensure a set number of digits, format the numbers with `toLocaleString`'s
`minimumIntegerDigits`, if more than 3 digits, also use its `useGrouping` */
hrs = Math.floor(diff/HRS)
min = Math.floor((diff%HRS)/MIN).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})
sec = Math.floor((diff%MIN)/SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 2})
ms = Math.floor(diff % SEC).toLocaleString('en-US', {minimumIntegerDigits: 4, useGrouping: false})
const humanDiff_3 = `${hrs}:${min}:${sec}.${ms}`
console.log("humanDiff_3:", humanDiff_3)
// > humanDiff_3: 30:51:51.0111
// NOTE: milliseconds are now 4 digits
This solution works for calculating diff between to separate military times
Example format: start = 23:00 / end = 02:30
function diff(start, end) {
start = start.split(":");
end = end.split(":");
if(Number(start[0]) > Number(end[0]) ) {
var num = Number(start[0])
var countTo = Number(end[0]);
var count = 0;
for (var i = 1; num != countTo;) {
num = num + i
if(num > 24) {
num = 0
}
count++
}
var hours = count - 1;
var startDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, start[0], start[1], 0);
var endDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, end[0], end[1], 0);
if(startDate.getMinutes() > endDate.getMinutes()) {
var hours = count - 2;
var diff = 60 - (startDate.getMinutes() - endDate.getMinutes());
} else {
var diff = endDate.getMinutes() - startDate.getMinutes();
}
var minutes = diff
} else {
var startDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, start[0], start[1], 0);
var endDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, end[0], end[1], 0);
var diff = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();
var hours = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60 / 60);
diff -= hours * 1000 * 60 * 60;
var minutes = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60);
}
var returnValue = (hours < 9 ? "0" : "") + hours + ":" + (minutes < 9 ? "0" : "") + minutes
return returnValue;
}
Well this work almost great. Now use this code to calculate: 23:50 - 00:10 And see what you get.Or even 23:30 - 01:30. That's a mess.
Because getting the answer the other way in php is:
$date1 = strtotime($_POST['started']);
$date2 = strtotime($_POST['ended']);
$interval = $date2 - $date1;
$playedtime = $interval / 60;
But still, it works like yours.
I guess have to bring in the dates aswell?
And again: My hard research and development helped me.
if (isset($_POST['calculate'])) {
$d1 = $_POST['started'];
$d2 = $_POST['ended'];
if ($d2 < $d1) {
$date22 = date('Y-m-');
$date222 = date('d')-1;
$date2 = $date22."".$date222;
} else {
$date2 = date('Y-m-d');
}
$date1 = date('Y-m-d');
$start_time = strtotime($date2.' '.$d1);
$end_time = strtotime($date1.' '.$d2); // or use date('Y-m-d H:i:s') for current time
$playedtime = round(abs($start_time - $end_time) / 60,2);
}
And that's how you calculate time over to the next day.
//edit. First i had date1 jnd date2 switched. I need to -1 because this calculation only comes on next day and the first date vas yesterday.
After improving and a lot of brain power with my friend we came up to this:
$begin=mktime(substr($_GET["start"], 0,2),substr($_GET["start"], 2,2),0,1,2,2003);
$end=mktime(substr($_GET["end"], 0,2),substr($_GET["end"], 2,2),0,1,3,2003);
$outcome=($end-$begin)-date("Z");
$minutes=date("i",$outcome)+date("H",$outcome)*60; //Echo minutes only
$hours = date("H:i", $outcome); //Echo time in hours + minutes like 01:10 or something.
So you actually need only 4 lines of code to get your result. You can take only minutes or show full time (like difference is 02:32) 2 hours and 32 minutes.
What's most important: Still you can calculate overnight in 24 hour clock aka: Start time 11:50PM to let's say 01:00 AM (in 24 hour clock 23:50 - 01:00) because in 12 hour mode it works anyway.
What's most important: You don't have to format your input. You can use just plain 2300 as 23:00 input. This script will convert text field input to correct format by itself.
Last script uses standard html form with method="get" but you can convert it to use POST method as well.
This is an updated version of one that was already submitted. It is with the seconds.
function diff(start, end) {
start = start.split(":");
end = end.split(":");
var startDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, start[0], start[1], 0);
var endDate = new Date(0, 0, 0, end[0], end[1], 0);
var diff = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();
var hours = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60 / 60);
diff -= hours * (1000 * 60 * 60);
var minutes = Math.floor(diff / 1000 / 60);
diff -= minutes * (1000 * 60);
var seconds = Math.floor(diff / 1000);
// If using time pickers with 24 hours format, add the below line get exact hours
if (hours < 0)
hours = hours + 24;
return (hours <= 9 ? "0" : "") + hours + ":" + (minutes <= 9 ? "0" : "") + minutes + (seconds<= 9 ? "0" : "") + seconds;
}

Try this: actually this a problem from codeeval.com
I solved it in this way .
This program takes a file as the argument so i used a little node js to read the file.
Here is my code.
var fs = require("fs");
fs.readFileSync(process.argv[2]).toString().split('\n').forEach(function (line) {
if (line !== "") {
var arr = line.split(" ");
var arr1 = arr[0].split(":");
var arr2 = arr[1].split(":");
var time1 = parseInt(arr1[0])*3600 + parseInt(arr1[1])*60 + parseInt(arr1[2]);
var time2 = parseInt(arr2[0])*3600 + parseInt(arr2[1])*60 + parseInt(arr2[2]);
var dif = Math.max(time1,time2) - Math.min(time1,time2);
var ans = [];
ans[0] = Math.floor(dif/3600);
if(ans[0]<10){ans[0] = "0"+ans[0]}
dif = dif%3600;
ans[1] = Math.floor(dif/60);
if(ans[1]<10){ans[1] = "0"+ans[1]}
ans[2] = dif%60;
if(ans[2]<10){ans[2] = "0"+ans[2]}
console.log(ans.join(":"));
}
});
We generally need time difference to estimate time taken by I/O operations, SP call etc, the simplest solution for NodeJs (the console is in callback- async execution) is following:
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
//This will give you current time in milliseconds since 1970-01-01
callYourExpectedFunction(param1, param2, function(err, result){
var endTime = new Date().getTime();
//This will give you current time in milliseconds since 1970-01-01
console.log(endTime - startTime)
//This will give you time taken in milliseconds by your function
if(err){
}
else{
}
})
