The getMilliseconds method returns the milliseconds since the last second of the point in time stored in a Date object. The value returned by this method is an integer number from 0 to 999.
Syntax
myDate.getMilliseconds()
With myDate being an object based on the Date object.
Instead of being instantiated from a class, in JavaScript objects are created by replicating other objects. This paradigm is called Prototype-based programming.
Example
The following code uses the getMilliseconds method to return the milliseconds since the last second of the current instant of time:
<script type="text/javascript">
var currentDate = new Date();
var milliseconds = currentDate.getMilliseconds();
document.write("The milliseconds passed since the last second are: " + milliseconds + ".");
</script>
var currentDate = new Date();
var milliseconds = currentDate.getMilliseconds();
document.write("The milliseconds passed since the last second are: " + milliseconds + ".");
</script>
Technical Details
The getMilliseconds method belongs to the Date object, it is available since the version 1.3 of JavaScript, and it is supported in all major browsers.
