Get milliseconds of time in JavaScript

How to return the milliseconds according to local time in JavaScript?

By using getMilliseconds() we can return the milliseconds, according to loacl time.

<p>Click the below button to get milliseconds of the time right now.</p>
<input type="button" value="Click" onclick="myDate()" />
<p id="myId"></p>

<script>
    function myDate() {
        var a = new Date();
        var r = a.getMilliseconds();
        document.getElementById("myId").innerHTML = r;
    }
</script>

In the above code snippet we have given Id as "myId"to the second <p> element in the HTML code. There is a function myDate() in the<script>block which is connected to the Onclick of the HTML button. The document.getElementById("myId")returns the element that has Id"id=myID" in the HTML page. We need to return the milliseconds, according to the local time, for that we are using getMilliseconds(). Onclick of the button "Click" in the HTML code fires the function "myDate()" in the <script> block at the same time getMilliseconds()return the milliseconds of the present time as output.
