How to get current time with jQuery

Question

The following returns time in microseconds, for example 4565212462.

alert( $.now() );

How do I convert it to a human readable time format,

Answer 1

jQuery.now() Returns: Number

Description: Return a number representing the current time.

This method does not accept any arguments.

The $.now() method is a shorthand for the number returned by the expression (new Date).getTime().

It's simple to use Javascript:

var d = new Date();
var time = d.getHours() + ":" + d.getMinutes() + ":" + d.getSeconds();
console.log(time);
