How to get two date-time diffrence

Question

I m tryinng to get time diffrence using javascript. I m implementing this things in iformbuilder.

Code

var date1 = $(".date1").val();
var date2 = $(".date2").val();
var d1=new Date(date1);
var d2=new Date(date2); 
var total=(((d2-d1)/1000*60)/60)

E.g

date1=2014/03/26 05:03
date2=2014/03/26 06:05

Expected output:

1:02

Current output:

There are many assumptions here. What about the DST, timezone and what if the date changes? will the day, month and year of date will be same always. — Vamsi Krishna, Mar 26 '14 at 06:15

The currentOutput is the difference in seconds. You can get the hours and minutes from it as:

var hrs = Math.floor(total/3600, 10);
var mins = (total%3600)/60;

Have you try this

var d1 = new Date();
var d2 = new Date();
document.write("Your Operation took  " + (d2.getTime() - d1.getTime()) + " milliseconds");
