im a noob in js xd, i want to put a text in an html in a choosen time of a clock!
i want it to print "make a wish" when its 11:11
the code:
function startTime() {
const today = new Date();
let h = today.getHours();
let m = today.getMinutes();
let s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
setTimeout(startTime, 1000);
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}

This can be done via setInterval in javascript with some basic if condition checks.
First create a date object via new Date() then get hours and minutes, check if the hour and minute is equal to your specified time then print the value.
We need to set an interval of 60 seconds which is equal to 60,000 milliseconds to not print again the same value in that minute.
You can try this -
setInterval(function(){
var date = new Date();
if(date.getHours() === 11 && date.getMinutes() === 11){
console.log("make a wish");
}
}, 60000);

Something like this will do.
function startTime() {
const today = new Date();
let h = today.getHours();
let m = today.getMinutes();
let s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
if (h == 11 && m == 11) {
console.log("Make a wish");
} else {
setTimeout(startTime, 1000);
}
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) { i = "0" + i }; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}
startTime();
<p id="txt"></p>

Use the callback function from SetInterval and get currentt time. afterwards you can check if it 11:11. If successful dont forget to clear the intervall.
const innterval = setInterval(function () {
check()
}, 5000);
function check() {
var today = new Date();
var t1111 = today.getHours() + ':' + today.getMinutes();
if (t1111 === '11:11') {
alert('11:11')
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML = t111 + ' PARTY!'
clearInterval(innterval);
}
console.log('Current time: ' + t1111 + ' still Waiting')
}
<div id="txt"></div>

javascript compare Two Times

Trying to get it to change between 16:30:00 and 17:30:00, to change the text font colour
Tried nested if statements as well
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML =
h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
var t = setTimeout(startTime, 500);
if ((h>=16 && m >=30) && (h<=17 && m<=30))
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "red";
}
else
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "black";
}
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}

try to use setInterval() it's look more clear:
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
if((h==16 && m>=30) || (h==17 && m<=30)){
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "red";
}
else
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "black";
}
};
setInterval(startTime, 500);

The main bug in your logic is looking for minutes where it is both less than and equal to 30 AND greater than and equal to 30. The only way that part evaluates to true is if minutes is 30.
I would normalize the time (so that each combination of hour, minute and second can be represented by a unique number) and use that for comparisons.
function startTime(el) {
var today = new Date();
var hour = today.getHours(),
minute = today.getMinutes(),
second = today.getSeconds();
var normalized_time = normalizeTime(hour, minute, second);
document.getElementById(el).innerHTML
= hour + ":" + padTime(minute) + ":" + padTime(second);
document.getElementById(el).style.color
= normalized_time >= normalizeTime(16, 30, 0)
&& normalized_time <= normalizeTime(17, 30, 0)
? 'red'
: 'black';
}
/*
* Add a 0 to the beginning of the number if one-digit number
*/
function padTime(i) {
return i < 10 ? '0' + i : i;
}
/*
* Converts the time to a normalized version
*/
function normalizeTime(h, m, s) {
return s + (60 * m) + (60 * 60 * h);
}
var t = setInterval(startTime, 500, 'txt');
<span id="txt"></span>

Edit: As per you question you want to take hour and minute into account for comparison, So i have not included the second's part.
The following function get an integer value against time , that later used for the comparison.
function getSeconds(hh,mm,ss)
{
return (Number(hh) * 60 * 60) + (Number(mm) * 60) + Number(ss);
}
Complete code :
function getSeconds(hh,mm,ss)
{
return (Number(hh) * 60 * 60) + (Number(mm) * 60) + Number(ss);
}
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML =
h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
var t = setTimeout(startTime, 500);
var timeNow = getSeconds(h,m,s);
//if ((h>=16 && m >=30) && (h<=17 && m<=30))
if (timeNow >= getSeconds(16,30,0) && timeNow <= getSeconds(17,30,00))
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "red";
}
else
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "black";
}
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}
startTime();

The problem with your code is you are comparing m with contradictory conditions.
I have concatenated the hour and minutes like following and used that for time comparison
var hrs = Number(h+'.'+m);
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML =
h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
var t = setTimeout(startTime, 500);
var hrs = Number(h+'.'+m);
//if ((h>=16 && m >=30) && (h<=17 && m<=30))
if (hrs >= 16.30 && hrs <= 17.30)
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "red";
}
else
{
document.getElementById("txt").style.color = "black";
}
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}
startTime();

javascript : Error for increment seconds

I want to auto increment the seconds.
I know that if I am using
var today = new Date();
Instead of this,
var st = "January 19, 2017 18:33:31"
var today = new Date(st);
it will be executed successfully.but i don't want that.I need the
output based on the code written above.
Thanks

Try this modification for startTime
var st = "January 19, 2017 18:33:31";
function startTime() {
var today = new Date(st);
var montharray = new Array("Jan","Feb","Mar","Abr","May","Jun","Jul","Ogu","Sep","Oct","Nov","Des");
var h = today.getHours();
var ampm = h >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM';
h = h % 12;
h = h ? h : 12;
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
h = checkTime(h);
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML =
checkTime(today.getDate())+" "+montharray[today.getMonth()]+" "+today.getFullYear() + " (" + ampm +" " + h + ":" + m + ":" + s +")";
today.setSeconds(today.getSeconds() + 1);
st = today;
setTimeout(startTime, 1000);
}

jQuery format time to remove seconds and add AM or PM

I have this time: 02:00:00, how would I format it 2:00pm
I have tried:
var time = new Date(z.app_time),
h = time.getHours(),
m = time.getMinutes();
but h returns NaN, same as m

One way:
var time = "02:00:00".split(":"),
h = +time[0],
p;
if (h > 12) {
h -= 12;
p = "pm";
} else {
h = h || 12;
p = "am";
}
var t = h + ":" + time[1] + p;

If you want to get current date so you don't need to give any parameter to Date() object.
Try this, it will give you the time as you want:
var time = new Date(),
h = time.getHours(),
m = time.getMinutes();
ampm = h >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
var finalTime = h + ':' + m + ampm;
Hope this helps.

Javascript change time between military and AM/PM onclick

I have a Rails app where I'm displaying a realtime clock in my application layout. I'm using this code to make it work:
<div id="time" class="time_display"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {
i = "0" + i;
}
return i;
}
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
// add a zero in front of numbers<10
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('time').innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
t = setTimeout(function () {
startTime()
}, 500);
}
startTime();
</script>
What I'd like to be able to do is somehow give the user the option to switch between a realtime clock in military time and regular AM/PM time with the AM/PM included but clicking on the div.
I've done some searching but haven't found anything that works too well. I'm open to any solutions someone might have be it JS or jQuery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If my question is not clear, please let me know.

Here is code. It get updated only on next tick, but you can manage to fix that if you want
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {
i = "0" + i;
}
return i;
}
function startTime() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
var ampm = h >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
// add a zero in front of numbers<10
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
var timer = document.getElementById('time');
if (timer.type == 'r') {
h = h % 12;
h = h ? h : 12;
timer.innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s + " " + ampm;
} else
timer.innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
t = setTimeout(function () {
startTime()
}, 500);
document.getElementById('time').onclick = function () {
if (this.type == 'r')
this.type = 'm';
else
this.type = 'r';
}
}
startTime();
<div id="time" class="time_display"></div>

Really:
var ampm = 'am';
if(hours > 11){
ampm = 'pm';
if(hours > 12)hours = hours-12;
}
if(hours === 0)hours = 12;
Also, you could do something like:
today.toLocaleString().split(',')[1];
