getUTCSeconds Method (Date) (JavaScript)

JavaScript - Internet Explorer 10

Gets the seconds of a Date object using Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

dateObj.getUTCSeconds() 

The required dateObj reference is a Date object.

Returns an integer between 0 and 59. Zero is returned when the time is less than one second into the current minute. If a Date object was created without specifying the time, by default the UTC seconds value is 0.

To get the number of seconds in local time, use the getSeconds method.

The following example shows how to use the getUTCSeconds method.

var date = new Date("1/1/2001");
document.write(date. getUTCSeconds());

// Output: 0
