My time input is automatically converted to 24 hour time format---when i call it and display it, I need to change it back to am/pm. Any suggestions?

Hello! If you have time in 24 hour time format let's say in variable "time24" and it's for example "15:45" you can use the following code:
codevar tmpArr = time24.split(':'), time12;
if(+tmpArr[0] == 12) {
time12 = tmpArr[0] + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' pm';
} else {
if(+tmpArr[0] == 00) {
time12 = '12:' + tmpArr[1] + ' am';
} else {
if(+tmpArr[0] > 12) {
time12 = (+tmpArr[0]-12) + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' pm';
} else {
time12 = (+tmpArr[0]) + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' am';
}
}
}/code
I tried this without luck. Should the code be triggered on the success of invoking the list service?
Hi Dan,
Add this function as custom JS:prefunction convertTime24to12(time24){
var tmpArr = time24.split(':'), time12;
if(+tmpArr[0] == 12) {
time12 = tmpArr[0] + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' pm';
} else {
if(+tmpArr[0] == 00) {
time12 = '12:' + tmpArr[1] + ' am';
} else {
if(+tmpArr[0] 12) {
time12 = (+tmpArr[0]-12) + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' pm';
} else {
time12 = (+tmpArr[0]) + ':' + tmpArr[1] + ' am';
}
}
}
return time12;
}/preUse this code on time value mapping:prereturn convertTime24to12(value);/pre
Thank you, this worked great!
You can get am the current time or passed date time to AM PM format through following function.
http://allinworld99.blogspot.in/2014/...
Code: Select all
function getval() {
var currentTime = new Date()
var hours = currentTime.getHours()
var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes()
if (minutes < 10)
minutes = "0" + minutes;
var suffix = "AM";
if (hours = 12) {
suffix = "PM";
hours = hours - 12;
}
if (hours == 0) {
hours = 12;
}
var current_time = hours + ":" + minutes + " " + suffix;
show_message("Current Your System Time is : " + current_time);
}
Just to add, if you are planning on showing dates/time throughout your app, it might be worth adding a library to handle it for you. In my app I use Moment.js.
you can try this free online js beautifier to format the javsscript code.
Thank you, this worked great!
