For local time in ISO8601 for SQL TIMESTAMP you could try   var tzoffset    new Date    getTimezoneOffset     60000  var localISOTime    new Date Date now   - tzoffset      toISOString      slice 0  19     replace  T             mydatediv   val localISOTime

Using JavaScript native Date functions you can get hours  minutes and seconds as you want  If you wish to format date and time in particular way you may want to implement a method extending JavaScript Date prototype   Here is one already implemented  https   github com jacwright date format

You may try like this   new Date   now       Also using Javascript you can do like this    x000D   x000D  var dt   new Date    x000D  var time   dt getHours           dt getMinutes           dt getSeconds    x000D  document write time   x000D   x000D   x000D

I use moment for all my time manipulation display needs  both client side  and node js if you use it   if you just need a simple format the answers above will do  if you are looking for something a bit more complex  moment is the way to go IMO

Convert a Date object to an string  using one of Date prototype s conversion getters  for example   var d   new Date    d                          Sun Dec 08 2013 18 55 38 GMT 0100  d toDateString             Sun Dec 08 2013  d toISOString              2013-12-08T17 55 38 130Z  d toLocaleDateString       8 12 2013  on my system d toLocaleString           8 12 2013 18 55 38  on my system d toUTCString              Sun  08 Dec 2013 17 55 38 GMT    Or  if you want it more customized  see the list of Date prototype s getter methods

jQuery s   now   is an alias of new Date   getTime    an internal Javascript function   http   api jquery com jquery now   This returns the number of seconds elapsed since 1970  commonly referred to  not necessarily correctly  as Unix Time  Epoch or Timestamp  depending on the circles you fall in  It can be really handy for calculating the difference between dates times using simple maths  It doesn t have any TimeZone information and is always UTC   http   en wikipedia org wiki Unix time  There is no need to use jQuery as other than this alias  it does little else to help with date time manipulation   If you are looking for a quick and dirty way of representing the time in text  the Javascript Date object has a  toString  prototype that will return an ISO formatted Date Time   new Date   toString      returns  Thu Apr 30 2015 14 37 36 GMT 0100  BST     More than likely though  you will want to customize your formatting  The Date object has the ability to pull out your relevant details so you can build your own string representation   https   developer mozilla org en-US docs Web JavaScript Reference Global Objects Date  var d   new Date      without params it defaults to  now  var t   d getHours           d getMinutes           d getSeconds      Will return 14 37 36   However  as you have asked for a jQuery solution - it is perhaps likely that you are working with older browsers  If you want to do more specific things - especially interpreting strings into Date objects  useful for API responses   you might want to look at Moment js   http   momentjs com   This will ensure cross browser compatibility and has much improved formatting without having to concatenate lots of strings to together  For example   moment   format  hh mm ss      Will return 14 37 36
