Description

Retrieves the number of hours that have elapsed since midnight.

Syntax

objDate.getHours( )

Remarks

The getHours method returns an integer between 0 and 23 indicating the number of hours since midnight. A zero in two situations: the time is before 1:00:00 am, or the time was not stored in the Date object when the object was created. The only way to determine which situation you have is to also check the minutes and seconds for zero values. If they are all zeroes, it is nearly certain that the time was not stored in the Date object.
