setMilliseconds Method

Visual Studio 2010

Sets the milliseconds value in the Date object using local time.

Copy 
function setMilliseconds(numMilli : Number)

numMilli

Required. A numeric value equal to the millisecond value.

To set the milliseconds value using Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), use the setUTCMilliseconds method.

If the value of numMilli is greater than 999 or is a negative number, the stored number of seconds (and minutes, hours, and so forth if necessary) is incremented an appropriate amount.

The following example illustrates the use of the setMilliseconds method.

Copy 
function SetMSecDemo(nmsec){
    var d = new Date();
    d.setMilliseconds(nmsec);

    var s = ""
    s += d.toLocaleString();
    s += " and " + d.getMilliseconds();
    s += " milliseconds";
    return(s);
}
