Date.prototype.setUTCSeconds()
The setUTCSeconds() method sets the seconds for a
specified date according to universal time.
Syntax
setUTCSeconds(secondsValue)
setUTCSeconds(secondsValue, msValue)
Parameters
secondsValue-
An integer between 0 and 59, representing the seconds.
msValue-
Optional. A number between 0 and 999, representing the milliseconds.
Return value
The number of milliseconds between 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC and the updated date.
Description
If you do not specify the msValue parameter, the value returned from the
getUTCMilliseconds() method is
used.
If a parameter you specify is outside of the expected range,
setUTCSeconds() attempts to update the date information in the
Date object accordingly. For example, if you use 100 for
secondsValue, the minutes stored in the Date object will be
incremented by 1, and 40 will be used for seconds.
Examples
Using setUTCSeconds()
var theBigDay = new Date();
theBigDay.setUTCSeconds(20);
