It is basic math operations, what is hard about multiplying and dividing some numbers by 60?– epascarelloCommented Dec 8, 2010 at 17:51

I would recommend Date.js
(Date.parse('7:07:02') - Date.parse('7:00')) / 1000; // => 422 seconds

@matt why to use a any javascript library for this , we can just achieve with javascript right.– kobeCommented Dec 8, 2010 at 17:17

@gov it all boils down to his use cases. We can't read his mind, but already in his example he gives 2 different formats for time. Will it ever include a date? AM or PM? Who knows. I would ask you - why write all the JS to properly parse dates and times when someone else has already done the heavy lifting for you? Date functionality in JS is already pretty sparse. DateJS makes working with date and times in JS trivial.– MattCommented Dec 8, 2010 at 17:22

You want the result to be the string value "0:07:02" or a numerical value representing 7 minutes and 2 seconds?– MattCommented Dec 8, 2010 at 17:39

either string value or numerical value,I just want to show the result on a input box after user types the second value, 7:07:02 .first value comes from database Thanks a again, Commented Dec 8, 2010 at 17:43
I don't think you want jquery. Just javascript will accomplish this. Change the two times to Dates and then add/subtract them as you like. Finally convert back to the date format that you want to use.
