| Property/method value type: | Time value | ||||||||
| JavaScript syntax: | - | myDate.setTime(aTimeValue) | |||||||
| Argument list: | aTimeValue | A value measured in milliseconds since midnight on any date. | |||||||
The time value is extracted by clipping off any overflow past 24 hours. This is done with the internal TimeClip() method. The value of the receiving object is set to the resulting value. That same value is returned as the result of the method.
The result is a time clipped to modulo 24 hours.
