dateObj.setMinutes()

The setMinutes() method sets the minutes for a specified date according to local time.

Syntax

dateObj.setMinutes(minutesValue[, secondsValue[, msValue]])

Versions prior to JavaScript 1.3

dateObj.setMinutes(minutesValue)

Parameters

minutesValue: An integer between 0 and 59, representing the minutes.
secondsValue: Optional. An integer between 0 and 59, representing the seconds. If you specify the secondsValue parameter, you must also specify the minutesValue.
msValue: Optional. A number between 0 and 999, representing the milliseconds. If you specify the msValue parameter, you must also specify the minutesValue and secondsValue.

Description

If you do not specify the secondsValue and msValue parameters, the values returned from getSeconds() and getMilliseconds() methods are used.

If a parameter you specify is outside of the expected range, setMinutes() attempts to update the date information in the Date object accordingly. For example, if you use 100 for secondsValue, the minutes will be incremented by 1 (minutesValue + 1), and 40 will be used for seconds.

Examples

Using `setMinutes()`

var theBigDay = new Date();
theBigDay.setMinutes(45);
