Date object
Date object is different from String object. Defining a string is actually a String object. You can call properties and methods directly.
To use a Date object, you must use the new keyword to create it. Otherwise, the properties and methods of the Date object cannot be called.
Method to create a Date object
(1) Create an instance of the current (now) date object without any parameters
var today = new Date();
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>php.cn</title> <script> //创建现在的日期时间对象实例 //today就是刚创建的Date对象实例 var today=new Date(); document.write(today); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>
(2) Create a date object instance with the specified timestamp, and the parameter is the timestamp.
Time stamp: refers to the number of milliseconds that have passed since a certain time at 0:00:00 on January 1, 1970 (1 second = 1000 milliseconds).
var timer = new Date(10000); //The time is 0:00:10 on January 1, 1970
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>php.cn</title> <script> //指定毫秒值 var time=new Date(20000); document.write(time); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>
(3) Specify the date of a string Time information, the parameter is a date and time string
var timer = new Date(“2016/11/11 10:00:00”);
Example: Calculate your How old are you today?
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>php.cn</title> <script> //计算你今年多大了 //1.创建现在的日期对象,取出当前的毫秒值 var now = new Date(); var nowTime = now.getTime(); //2.创建出生日期时的日期对象,取出那时的毫秒值 var ago = new Date("1992/10/10"); var agoTime = ago.getTime(); //3.两个毫秒相减 var str=(nowTime-agoTime)/1000/3600/24/365; document.write("你今年"+str+"岁了") </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>
(4) Specify multiple numerical parameters
var timer = new Date(2015+100,4,25,10,20,0); // The order is: year, month, day, hour, minute, second. Year, month, and day are required.
Example: Calculate how many days you have to live until you are 100 years old.
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>php.cn</title> <script> //计算你今年多大了 //1.创建现在的日期对象,取出当前的毫秒值 var now = new Date(); var nowTime = now.getTime(); //2.创建未来日期时的日期对象,取出那时的毫秒值 var future = new Date(1992+100,10,10); var futureTime = future.getTime(); //3.两个毫秒相减 var str=(futureTime-nowTime)/1000/3600/24; document.write("你还要活"+str+"天,才能到100岁"); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>
getFullYear(): Get the four-digit year.
