The Date object is a data type built into the JavaScript language. Date objects are created with the new Date( ) as shown below.
Once a Date object is created, a number of methods allow you to operate on it. Most methods simply allow you to get and set the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisecond fields of the object, using either local time or UTC (universal, or GMT) time.
The toTimeString() function of the date object returns the time in the date object.
Its Syntax is as follows
dateObj.toTimeString()

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var dateObj = new Date('September 26, 89 12:4:25:96');
document.write("Current Time: "+dateObj.toTimeString());
</script>
</body>
</html>
Current Time: 12:04:25 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
If you do not pass a parameter to the constructor while creating a date object this function returns the current time.
