Moment.js - two dates difference in number of days

Question

I get incorrect results when trying to find numeric difference between two dates:

var startDate = moment( $(\'[name=\"date-start\"]\').val(), \"DD.MM.YYYY\")         


        

Answer 1

the diff method returns the difference in milliseconds. Instantiating moment(diff) isn't meaningful.

You can define a variable :

var dayInMilliseconds = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;

and then use it like so :

diff / dayInMilliseconds // --> 15

Edit

actually, this is built into the diff method, dubes' answer is better
