Answer 1

Highly recommend you include moment.js in your project if you need to handle time.

Example:

var t1 = moment('05:34:01', "hh:mm:ss");
var t2 = moment('20:44:44', "hh:mm:ss");
var t3 = moment(t2.diff(t1)).format("hh:mm:ss");

Working jsFiddle

To install moment.js in Node.js, simply do:

npm install moment (or for a global install sudo npm -g install moment)

And then in your Node.js, include it like so:

var moment = require('moment');

Edit: For 24h clock, change hh to HH.
