Given a date and the task is to check whether the given date is less than 1 hour ago or not with the help of JavaScript.
Approach 1:
- Count the milliseconds of the difference between the current and prev_date.
- If those are greater than milliseconds in 1 hour, then it returns false otherwise returns true.
Example: This example implements the above approach.
html
< h1 style = "color:green;" >
GeeksForGeeks
</ h1 >
< p id = "GFG_UP" style = "font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold;" >
</ p >
< button onclick = "gfg_Run()" >
click here
</ button >
< p id = "GFG_DOWN" style="color:green;
font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold;">
</ p >
< script >
var el_up = document.getElementById("GFG_UP");
var el_down = document.getElementById("GFG_DOWN");
var prev_date = new Date();
var d = new Date();
Date.prototype.addHours = function(h) {
this.setTime(this.getTime() + (h*60*60*1000));
return this;
}
prev_date.addHours(-2);
el_up.innerHTML = "Click on the button to "
+ "check if the date is less than "
+ "1 hour ago.< br >Previous date = "
+ prev_date;
function gfg_Run() {
// Hour in milliseconds
var ONE_HOUR = 60 * 60 * 1000;
if ((d - prev_date) < ONE_HOUR ) {
el_down.innerHTML = "Date is less"
+ " than 1 hour ago.";
}
else {
el_down.innerHTML = "Date is not "
+ "less than 1 hour ago.";
}
}
</script> |
Output:
Approach 2:
- Subtract 1 hour milliseconds from current time.
- Compare the milliseconds of the current and prev_date.
- If those are greater than milliseconds in 1 hour, then it return false otherwise returns true.
Example 2: This example uses the approach as discussed above.

font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold;">

< script >
var el_up = document.getElementById("GFG_UP");
var el_down = document.getElementById("GFG_DOWN");
var prev_date = new Date();
var d = new Date();
const check = (date) => {
const HOUR = 1000 * 60 * 60;
const anHourAgo = Date.now() - HOUR;
return date > anHourAgo;
}
el_up.innerHTML = "Click on the button to check"
+ " if the date is less than 1 hour"
+ " ago.< br >Previous date = " + prev_date;
function gfg_Run() {
var c = check(prev_date);
if (c) {
el_down.innerHTML = "Date is less "
+ "than 1 hour ago.";
}
else {
el_down.innerHTML = "Date is not less"
+ " than 1 hour ago.";
}
}
</ script >
