JavaScript Date getMilliseconds() Method

Below is the example of Date getMilliseconds() method.

Example:

<script> 
  // Here a date has been assigned 
  // while creating Date object 
  var DateObj = new Date('October 15, 1996 05:35:32:77'); 
  
  // millisecond from above date object is 
  // being extracted using getMilliseconds(). 
  var millisec = DateObj.getMilliseconds(); 
  
  // Printing millisecond 
  document.write(millisec); 
</script> 

Output:
```
77
```

The date.getMilliseconds() method is used to fetch the milliseconds from a given Date object.

Syntax:

DateObj.getMilliseconds()

Parameter: This function does not accept any parameter.

Return values: It returns the millisecond for the given date object. Milliseconds is an integer value ranging from 0 to 999.

More codes for the above method are as follows:

Program 1: The date of the month should must lie in between 1 to 31 because none of the month have date greater than 31 that is why it returns NaN i.e, not a number because date for the month does not exist.

<script> 
  // Here a date has been assigned 
  // while creating Date object 
  var DateObj = new Date('October 33, 1996 05:35:32:77'); 
  
  // millisecond from above dateobject is 
  // being extracted using getMilliseconds(). 
  var millisec = DateObj.getMilliseconds(); 
  
  // Printing millisecond 
  document.write(millisec); 
</script> 

Output:

NaN

Program 2: If millisecond is not given, it returns zero (0).

<script> 
  // Here a date has been assigned 
  // while creating Date object 
  var DateObj = new Date('October 13, 1996 05:35:32'); 
  
  // millisecond from above dateobject is being 
  // extracted using getMilliseconds() 
  var millisec = DateObj.getMilliseconds(); 
  
  // Printing millisecond 
  document.write(millisec); 
</script> 

Output:

Examole 3: If nothing as parameter is given to the Date() constructor, it returns current millisecond.

<script> 
  // Creating a Date Object 
  var DateObj = new Date(); 
  
  // millisecond from above Date object is being 
  // extracted using getMilliSeconds() 
  var millisec = DateObj.getMilliseconds(); 
  
  // Printing current millisecond 
  document.write(millisec); 
</script> 

Output:

Example 4: If millisecond as 1003 is given while creating the Date object, the function will return 0 as exception because milliseconds range is in between 0 to 999 and 1003 is out of this range.

<script> 
  // Here a date has been assigned 
  // while creating Date object 
  var DateObj = new Date('October 13, 1996 05:35:32:1003'); 
  
  // millisecond from above dateobject is being 
  // extracted using getMilliseconds() 
  var millisec = DateObj.getMilliseconds(); 
  
  // Printing millisecond 
  document.write(millisec); 
</script>
