setUTCMilliseconds

Summary

Sets the milliseconds value in the Date object using Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

Syntax

dateObj.setUTCMilliseconds( numMilli )
dateObj
Required. Any Date object.
numMilli
Required. A numeric value equal to the millisecond value.

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the setUTCMilliseconds method.

function SetUTCMSecDemo(nmsec){
 // Create Date object.
    var d = new Date();
 // Set UTC milliseconds.
    d.setUTCMilliseconds(nmsec);

    var s = "Current setting is ";
    s += d.toUTCString();
    s += " and " + d.getUTCMilliseconds();
    s += " milliseconds"
    return(s);
 }

Remarks

To set the milliseconds using local time, use the setMilliseconds 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.
