Time Object
The Time object represents an HTML <time> element.
Access a Time Object
You can access a <time> element by using getElementById():
Example(1)
<h2>I have a date on <time id="Time" datetime="2014-10-02">Gandhi Jayanti</time>.</h2>
<button class="btn btn-success" onclick="Get_time()">Click it</button>
<h2 id="demo"></h2>
<script>
function Get_time() {
var x = document.getElementById("Time").innerHTML;
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = x;
}
</script>
Create a Time Object
You can create a <time> element by using the document.createElement() method:
Example(2)
<button class="btn btn-success" onclick="get_time()">Click it</button>
<script>
function get_time() {
var x = document.createElement("TIME");
x.setAttribute("datetime", "2014-10-02");
var t = document.createTextNode("Gandhi Jayanti");
x.appendChild(t);
document.body.appendChild(x);
}
</script>
In above example when we click button it will create a TIME element that specifies the date of "Gandhi Jayanti (2014-10-02)".
