JScript Date Object getUTCSeconds Method

Retrieves the number of seconds past the minute from the seconds value stored in a Date object according to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

Syntax: JScript Date Object getUTCSeconds Method

objDate.getUTCSeconds()

Arguments: JScript Date Object getUTCSeconds Method

objDate

The name of a Date object. Required.

Remarks: JScript Date Object getUTCSeconds Method

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

The getUTCSeconds method returns an integer between 0 and 59 indicating the seconds value of the indicated Date object. A zero occurs in two situations: the time is less than one second into the current minute, or a time was not stored in the Date object when the object was created. The only way to determine which situation you have is to also check the minutes and hours for zero values. If they are all zeroes, it is nearly certain that the time was not stored in the Date object.
