Changing the 1-24 hour to 1-12 hour for the "getHours()" Method
hour, javascript, time
Solution
Why not do it the brief way? Math, people! :)
// returns the hours number for a date, between 1 and 12
function hours12(date) { return (date.getHours() + 24) % 12 || 12; }
Problem
When I use the "getHour()" method in javascript, it displays the military time format. I need it to display the hour in numbers between 1-12 instead. Can anybody tell me how to do this? Here is the code I am using: ``` function updateclock() { var time = new Date(); var todisplay = ''; if (time.getHours() < 10) todisplay += time.getHours(); else todisplay += time.getHours(); if (time.getMinutes() < 10) todisplay += ':0' + time.getMinutes(); else todisplay += ':' + time.getMinutes(); document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = todisplay; } ```
