I have buttons with the names of big cities.
Clicking them, I want to get local time in them.
$('#btnToronto').click(function () {
var hours = new Date().getHours();
var hours = hours-2; //this is the distance from my local time
alert ('Toronto time: ' + hours + ' h'); //this works correctly
});
But how can I get AM or PM ?
You should just be able to check if hours is greater than 12.
var ampm = (hours >= 12) ? "PM" : "AM";
But have you considered the case where the hour is less than 2 before you subtract 2? You'd end up with a negative number for your hour.
Try below code:
$('#btnToronto').click(function () {
var hours = new Date().getHours();
var hours = (hours+24-2)%24;
var mid='am';
if(hours==0){ //At 00 hours we need to show 12 am
hours=12;
}
else if(hours>12)
{
hours=hours%12;
mid='pm';
}
alert ('Toronto time: ' + hours + mid);
});
You can use like this,
var dt = new Date();
var h = dt.getHours(), m = dt.getMinutes();
var _time = (h > 12) ? (h-12 + ':' + m +' PM') : (h + ':' + m +' AM');
Hopes this will be better with minutes too.
const now = new Date()
.toLocaleTimeString([], { hour: '2-digit', minute: '2-digit', hour12: true })
.toLowerCase();
Basically you just need to put {hour12: true} and it's done.
result => now = "21:00 pm";
If hours is less than 12, it's the a.m..
var hours = new Date().getHours(), // this is local hours, may want getUTCHours()
am;
// adjust for timezone
hours = (hours + 24 - 2) % 24;
// get am/pm
am = hours < 12 ? 'a.m.' : 'p.m.';
// convert to 12-hour style
hours = (hours % 12) || 12;
Now, for me as you didn't use getUTCHours, it is currently 2 hours after
hours + ' ' + am; // "6 p.m."
very interesting post. in a function that take a date in parameter it can appear like that :
function hourwithAMPM(dateInput) {
var d = new Date(dateInput);
var ampm = (d.getHours() >= 12) ? "PM" : "AM";
var hours = (d.getHours() >= 12) ? d.getHours()-12 : d.getHours();
return hours+' : '+d.getMinutes()+' '+ampm;
}
with date.js
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.datejs.com/build/date.js"></script>
you can write like this
new Date().toString("hh:mm tt")
cheet sheet is here format specifiers
tt is for AM/PM
Try this:
h = h > 12 ? h-12 +'PM' : h +'AM';
The best way without extensions and complex coding:
date.toLocaleString([], { hour12: true});
How do you display javascript datetime in 12 hour AM/PM format?
here is get time i use in my code
let current = new Date();
let cDate = current.getDate() + '-' + (current.getMonth() + 1) + '-' + current.getFullYear();
let hours = current.getHours();
let am_pm = (hours >= 12) ? "PM" : "AM";
if(hours >= 12){
hours -=12;
}
let cTime = hours + ":" + current.getMinutes() + ":" + current.getSeconds() +" "+ am_pm;
let dateTime = cDate + ' ' + cTime;
console.log(dateTime); // 1-3-2021 2:28:14 PM
var now = new Date();
var hours = now.getHours();
var minutes = now.getMinutes();
var ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
hours = hours % 12;
hours = hours ? hours : 12;
minutes = minutes < 10 ? '0' + minutes : minutes;
var timewithampm = hours + ':' + minutes + ' ' + ampm;
return timewithampm;
var dt = new Date();
var h = dt.getHours(),
m = dt.getMinutes();
var time;
if (h == 12) {
time = h + ":" + m + " PM";
} else {
time = h > 12 ? h - 12 + ":" + m + " PM" : h + ":" + m + " AM";
}
//var time = h > 12 ? h - 12 + ":" + m + " PM" : h + ":" + m + " AM";
console.log(`CURRENT TIME IS ${time}`);
This will work for everytime,
function Timer() {
var dt = new Date()
if (dt.getHours() >= 12){
ampm = "PM";
} else {
ampm = "AM";
}
if (dt.getHours() < 10) {
hour = "0" + dt.getHours();
} else {
hour = dt.getHours();
}
if (dt.getMinutes() < 10) {
minute = "0" + dt.getMinutes();
} else {
minute = dt.getMinutes();
}
if (dt.getSeconds() < 10) {
second = "0" + dt.getSeconds();
} else {
second = dt.getSeconds();
}
if (dt.getHours() > 12) {
hour = dt.getHours() - 12;
} else {
hour = dt.getHours();
}
if (hour < 10) {
hour = "0" + hour;
} else {
hour = hour;
}
document.getElementById('time').innerHTML = hour + ":" + minute + ":" + second + " " + ampm;
setTimeout("Timer()", 1000);
}
Timer()
<div id="time"></div>
How do you display a JavaScript datetime object in the 12 hour format (AM/PM)?
function formatAMPM(date) {
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
var ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
hours = hours % 12;
hours = hours ? hours : 12; // the hour '0' should be '12'
minutes = minutes < 10 ? '0'+minutes : minutes;
var strTime = hours + ':' + minutes + ' ' + ampm;
return strTime;
}
console.log(formatAMPM(new Date));
If you just want to show the hours then..
var time = new Date();
console.log(
time.toLocaleString('en-US', { hour: 'numeric', hour12: true })
);
Output : 7 AM
If you wish to show the minutes as well then...
var time = new Date();
console.log(
time.toLocaleString('en-US', { hour: 'numeric', minute: 'numeric', hour12: true })
);
Output : 7:23 AM
Here's a way using regex:
console.log(new Date('7/10/2013 20:12:34').toLocaleTimeString().replace(/([\d]+:[\d]{2})(:[\d]{2})(.*)/, "$1$3"))
console.log(new Date('7/10/2013 01:12:34').toLocaleTimeString().replace(/([\d]+:[\d]{2})(:[\d]{2})(.*)/, "$1$3"))
This creates 3 matching groups:
([\d]+:[\d]{2}) - Hour:Minute
(:[\d]{2}) - Seconds
(.*) - the space and period (Period is the official name for AM/PM)
Then it displays the 1st and 3rd groups.
WARNING: toLocaleTimeString() may behave differently based on region / location.
If you don't need to print the am/pm, I found the following nice and concise:
var now = new Date();
var hours = now.getHours() % 12 || 12; // 12h instead of 24h, with 12 instead of 0.
This is based off #bbrame's answer.
As far as I know, the best way to achieve that without extensions and complex coding is like this:
date.toLocaleString([], { hour12: true});
Javascript AM/PM Format
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p>Click the button to display the date and time as a string.</p>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
<button onclick="fullDateTime()">Try it2</button>
<p id="demo"></p>
<p id="demo2"></p>
<script>
function myFunction() {
var d = new Date();
var n = d.toLocaleString([], { hour: '2-digit', minute: '2-digit' });
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = n;
}
function fullDateTime() {
var d = new Date();
var n = d.toLocaleString([], { hour12: true});
document.getElementById("demo2").innerHTML = n;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
I found this checking this question out.
How do I use .toLocaleTimeString() without displaying seconds?
In modern browsers, use Intl.DateTimeFormat and force 12hr format with options:
let now = new Date();
new Intl.DateTimeFormat('default',
{
hour12: true,
hour: 'numeric',
minute: 'numeric'
}).format(now);
// 6:30 AM
Using default will honor browser's default locale if you add more options, yet will still output 12hr format.
Use Moment.js for this
Use below codes in JavaScript when using moment.js
H, HH 24 hour time
h, or hh 12 hour time (use in conjunction with a or A)
The format() method returns the date in specific format.
moment(new Date()).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm"); // 24H clock
moment(new Date()).format("YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm A"); // 12H clock (AM/PM)
moment(new Date()).format("YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm a"); // 12H clock (am/pm)
My suggestion is use moment js for date and time operation.
https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/
console.log(moment().format('hh:mm a'));
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.17.1/moment.min.js"></script>
Updated for more compression
const formatAMPM = (date) => {
let hours = date.getHours();
let minutes = date.getMinutes();
const ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';
hours %= 12;
hours = hours || 12;
minutes = minutes < 10 ? `0${minutes}` : minutes;
const strTime = `${hours}:${minutes} ${ampm}`;
return strTime;
};
console.log(formatAMPM(new Date()));
use dateObj.toLocaleString([locales[, options]])
Option 1 - Using locales
var date = new Date();
console.log(date.toLocaleString('en-US'));
Option 2 - Using options
var options = { hour12: true };
console.log(date.toLocaleString('en-GB', options));
Note: supported on all browsers but safari atm
Short RegExp for en-US:
var d = new Date();
d = d.toLocaleTimeString().replace(/:\d+ /, ' '); // current time, e.g. "1:54 PM"
Please find the solution below
var d = new Date();
var amOrPm = (d.getHours() < 12) ? "AM" : "PM";
var hour = (d.getHours() < 12) ? d.getHours() : d.getHours() - 12;
return d.getDate() + ' / ' + d.getMonth() + ' / ' + d.getFullYear() + ' ' + hour + ':' + d.getMinutes() + ' ' + amOrPm;
It will return the following format like
09:56 AM
appending zero in start for the hours as well if it is less than 10
Here it is using ES6 syntax
const getTimeAMPMFormat = (date) => {
let hours = date.getHours();
let minutes = date.getMinutes();
const ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM';
hours = hours % 12;
hours = hours ? hours : 12; // the hour '0' should be '12'
hours = hours < 10 ? '0' + hours : hours;
// appending zero in the start if hours less than 10
minutes = minutes < 10 ? '0' + minutes : minutes;
return hours + ':' + minutes + ' ' + ampm;
};
console.log(getTimeAMPMFormat(new Date)); // 09:59 AM
I fount it's here it working fine.
var date_format = '12'; /* FORMAT CAN BE 12 hour (12) OR 24 hour (24)*/
var d = new Date();
var hour = d.getHours(); /* Returns the hour (from 0-23) */
var minutes = d.getMinutes(); /* Returns the minutes (from 0-59) */
var result = hour;
var ext = '';
if(date_format == '12'){
if(hour > 12){
ext = 'PM';
hour = (hour - 12);
result = hour;
if(hour < 10){
result = "0" + hour;
}else if(hour == 12){
hour = "00";
ext = 'AM';
}
}
else if(hour < 12){
result = ((hour < 10) ? "0" + hour : hour);
ext = 'AM';
}else if(hour == 12){
ext = 'PM';
}
}
if(minutes < 10){
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
result = result + ":" + minutes + ' ' + ext;
console.log(result);
and plunker example here
Check out Datejs. Their built in formatters can do this: http://code.google.com/p/datejs/wiki/APIDocumentation#toString
It's a really handy library, especially if you are planning on doing other things with date objects.
<script>
var todayDate = new Date();
var getTodayDate = todayDate.getDate();
var getTodayMonth = todayDate.getMonth()+1;
var getTodayFullYear = todayDate.getFullYear();
var getCurrentHours = todayDate.getHours();
var getCurrentMinutes = todayDate.getMinutes();
var getCurrentAmPm = getCurrentHours >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM';
getCurrentHours = getCurrentHours % 12;
getCurrentHours = getCurrentHours ? getCurrentHours : 12;
getCurrentMinutes = getCurrentMinutes < 10 ? '0'+getCurrentMinutes : getCurrentMinutes;
var getCurrentDateTime = getTodayDate + '-' + getTodayMonth + '-' + getTodayFullYear + ' ' + getCurrentHours + ':' + getCurrentMinutes + ' ' + getCurrentAmPm;
alert(getCurrentDateTime);
</script>
Hopefully this answer is a little more readable than the other answers (especially for new comers).
Here's the solution I've implemented in some of my sites for informing the last time the site code was modified. It implements AM/PM time through the options parameter of date.toLocaleDateString (see related Mozilla documentation).
// Last time page code was updated/changed
const options = {
year: "numeric",
month: "long",
weekday: "long",
day: "numeric",
hour: "numeric",
minute: "numeric",
second: "numeric",
hour12: true // This is the line of code we care about here
/*
false: displays 24hs format for time
true: displays 12, AM and PM format
*/
};
let last = document.lastModified;
let date = new Date(last);
let local = date.toLocaleDateString("en-US", options);
let fullDate = `${local}`;
document.getElementById("updated").textContent = fullDate;
Which output is in the format:
Saturday, May 28, 2022, 8:38:50 PM
This output is then displayed in the following HTML code:
<p>Last update: <span id="updated">_update_date_goes_here</span></p>
NOTE: In this use case, document.lastModified has some weird behaviors depending if it's run locally or on a external server (see this Stack Overflow question). Though it works correctly when I run it in my GitHub page (you should see it in action in the site at the footer).
Here is another way that is simple, and very effective:
var d = new Date();
var weekday = new Array(7);
weekday[0] = "Sunday";
weekday[1] = "Monday";
weekday[2] = "Tuesday";
weekday[3] = "Wednesday";
weekday[4] = "Thursday";
weekday[5] = "Friday";
weekday[6] = "Saturday";
var month = new Array(11);
month[0] = "January";
month[1] = "February";
month[2] = "March";
month[3] = "April";
month[4] = "May";
month[5] = "June";
month[6] = "July";
month[7] = "August";
month[8] = "September";
month[9] = "October";
month[10] = "November";
month[11] = "December";
var t = d.toLocaleTimeString().replace(/:\d+ /, ' ');
document.write(weekday[d.getDay()] + ',' + " " + month[d.getMonth()] + " " + d.getDate() + ',' + " " + d.getFullYear() + '<br>' + d.toLocaleTimeString());
</script></div><!-- #time -->
you can determine am or pm with this simple code
var today=new Date();
var noon=new Date(today.getFullYear(),today.getMonth(),today.getDate(),12,0,0);
var ampm = (today.getTime()<noon.getTime())?'am':'pm';
try this
var date = new Date();
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
var seconds = date.getSeconds();
var ampm = hours >= 12 ? "pm" : "am";
function formatTime( d = new Date(), ampm = true )
{
var hour = d.getHours();
if ( ampm )
{
var a = ( hour >= 12 ) ? 'PM' : 'AM';
hour = hour % 12;
hour = hour ? hour : 12; // the hour '0' should be '12'
}
var hour = checkDigit(hour);
var minute = checkDigit(d.getMinutes());
var second = checkDigit(d.getSeconds());
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1408289/how-can-i-do-string-interpolation-in-javascript
return ( ampm ) ? `${hour}:${minute}:${second} ${a}` : `${hour}:${minute}:${second}`;
}
function checkDigit(t)
{
return ( t < 10 ) ? `0${t}` : t;
}
document.querySelector("#time1").innerHTML = formatTime();
document.querySelector("#time2").innerHTML = formatTime( new Date(), false );
<p>ampm true: <span id="time1"></span> (default)</p>
<p>ampm false: <span id="time2"></span></p>
function startTime() {

If you have time as string like so var myTime = "15:30",
then you can use the following code to get am pm.
var hour = parseInt(myTime.split(":")[0]) % 12;
var timeInAmPm = (hour == 0 ? "12": hour ) + ":" + myTime.split(":")[1] + " " + (parseInt(parseInt(myTime.split(":")[0]) / 12) < 1 ? "am" : "pm");
var d = new Date();
var hours = d.getHours() % 12;
hours = hours ? hours : 12;
var test = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'][(d.getMonth() + 1)] + " " +
("00" + d.getDate()).slice(-2) + " " +
d.getFullYear() + " " +
("00" + hours).slice(-2) + ":" +
("00" + d.getMinutes()).slice(-2) + ":" +
("00" + d.getSeconds()).slice(-2) + ' ' + (d.getHours() >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM');
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = test;

This is the easiest Way you can Achieve this using ternary operator or you can also use if else instead !
const d = new Date();
let hrs = d.getHours();
let m = d.getMinutes();
// Condition to add zero before minute
let min = m < 10 ? `0${m}` : m;
const currTime = hrs >= 12 ? `${hrs - 12}:${min} pm` : `${hrs}:${min} am`;
console.log(currTime);
Or just simply do the following code:
<script>
time = function() {
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_clock').innerHTML = h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
var t = setTimeout(function(){time()}, 0);
}
time2 = function() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
if (h>12) {
document.getElementById('txt_clock_stan').innerHTML = h-12 + ":" + m + ":" + s;
}
var t = setTimeout(function(){time2()}, 0);
}
time3 = function() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
if (h>12) {
document.getElementById('hour_line').style.width = h-12 + 'em';
}
document.getElementById('minute_line').style.width = m + 'em';
document.getElementById('second_line').style.width = s + 'em';
var t = setTimeout(function(){time3()}, 0);
}
checkTime = function(i) {
if (i<10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}
</script>
I'm using a simple javascript to display the local time in my country, but it seems to be incorrect and not displayed correctly in the right order. After 12 midnight, by right the clock should reset to AM instead, but it keeps showing the time in PM.
Body:
<body onload="updateClock(); setInterval('updateClock()', 1000 )">
//div tags, elements etc
</body>
JS:
function updateClock (){
var currentTime = new Date();
var currentHours = currentTime.getUTCHours() + 8;
var currentMinutes = currentTime.getUTCMinutes();
var currentSeconds = currentTime.getUTCSeconds();
// var bucurestiOffset = 3*60000;
// var userOffset = currentTime.getTimezoneOffset()*60000;
currentMinutes = ( currentMinutes < 10 ? "0" : "" ) + currentMinutes;
currentSeconds = ( currentSeconds < 10 ? "0" : "" ) + currentSeconds;
var timeOfDay = ( currentHours < 12 ) ? "AM" : "PM";
currentHours = ( currentHours > 12 ) ? currentHours - 12 : currentHours;
currentHours = ( currentHours == 0 ) ? 12 : currentHours;
var currentTimeString = currentHours + ":" + currentMinutes + ":" + currentSeconds + " " + timeOfDay;
document.getElementById("clock").firstChild.nodeValue = currentTimeString;
}
The results are as such: 13:57 PM, when it supposed to be 1:57 AM. Don't know how to fix it.
currentTime.getUTCHours() + 8 can be greater than 24, which leads to many errors (like the hour not being correct but also the day or month or year not being the right one).
You should look for libraries like moment.js to deal a little better with time zones and time formatting.
This will allow you to do you're current method of +8 for the timezone but accurately calculate it based on this function.
function calcTime(city, offset) {
// create Date object for current location
d = new Date();
// convert to msec
// add local time zone offset
// get UTC time in msec
utc = d.getTime() + (d.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000);
// create new Date object for different city
// using supplied offset
nd = new Date(utc + (3600000*offset));
return nd
}

I meant to have two clocks, one for 24-hour format, and the other is 12-hour format,
function updateClock() {
var currentTime = new Date();
var currentHoursAP = currentTime.getHours();
var currentHours = currentTime.getHours();
var currentMinutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
var currentSeconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
// Pad the minutes and seconds with leading zeros, if required
currentMinutes = (currentMinutes < 10 ? "0" : "") + currentMinutes;
currentSeconds = (currentSeconds < 10 ? "0" : "") + currentSeconds;
// Choose either "AM" or "PM" as appropriate
var timeOfDay = (currentHours < 12) ? "AM" : "PM";
// Convert the hours component to 12-hour format if needed
currentHoursAP = (currentHours > 12) ? currentHours - 12 : currentHours;
// Convert an hours component of "0" to "12"
currentHoursAP = (currentHours == 0) ? 12 : currentHours;
// Compose the string for display
var currentTimeString = currentHours + ":" + currentMinutes + ":" + currentSeconds + " " + " / " + currentHoursAP + ":" + currentMinutes + ":" + currentSeconds + " " + timeOfDay;
$("#clock").html(currentTimeString);
}
$(document).ready(function () {
setInterval(updateClock, 1000);
});
but end up to currentHours and currentHoursAP become exact same value.
What do I missed?
The problem was
// Convert an hours component of "0" to "12"
currentHoursAP = (currentHoursAP == 0) ? 12 : currentHoursAP;
if currentHoursAP != 0 then instead of setting back the value of currentHoursAP you were setting it back to currentHours
Demo: Fiddle
getHours is zero-based (0 = 12 AM, 23 = 11 PM), so you need to adjust the check:
currentHoursAP = (currentHours >= 12) ? currentHours - 12 : currentHours;
currentHoursAP = (currentHoursAP == 0) ? 12 : currentHoursAP;
