![[Solved]-Difference between two dates in minutes Javascript](https://www.appsloveworld.com/wp-content/themes/dnfinder-mygridlove-theme-master/assets/img/gridlove_default.jpg)
Ashok PatelIf you are looking for a JavaScript function to get the difference between the two dates in minutes then you have come to the right place.Here is the simple Javascript code
function GetdiffinMinute()
{
var d1 = new Date("12/04/2020")
var d2 = new Date("11/04/2020")
var diff = (d1.getTime() - d2.getTime()) / 60000;
var mintdiff = Math.abs(Math.round(diff));
return mintdiff
}Subtracting two Date objects gives you the result in milliseconds .Now we want result in minutes so that Dividing the result by 1000 gives you the number of seconds. And then Dividing that value by 60 gives you the number of minutes. So you can say that divide the value by 60000 gives you difference in minutes.
Using Above Concept you can also write a generic javascript function which will return the difference between two dates in minute,hours ,days,milliseconds.

var Newyearday = new Date("2020-01-01");
var diffMs = (todaydate - Newyearday); //diffrence in milliseconds between now & Christmas
var diffDays = Math.floor(diffMs / 86400000); //diffrence in days
var diffHrs = Math.floor((diffMs % 86400000) / 3600000); //diffrence in hours
var diffMins = Math.round(((diffMs % 86400000) % 3600000) / 60000); //diffrence in minutes
alert(diffDays + " days, " + diffHrs + " hours, " + diffMins + " minutes until Christmas 2009 =)");
}
</script>
