Can anyone give me a simple JavaScript code block that will allow me to display the local time minus 2 hours?

To subtract hours from a given timestamp, we are going to use the datetime and timedelta classes of the datetime module. Step 1: If the given timestamp is in a string format, then we need to convert it to the datetime object. For that we can use the datetime. strptime() function.
To subtract hours from a date:Use the getHours() method to get the hours of the specific date. Use the setHours() method to set the hours for the date. The setHours method takes the hours as a parameter and sets the value for the date.
Subtract from another date object
var d = new Date(); d.setHours(d.getHours() - 2); According to Javascript Date Documentation, you can easily do this way:
var twoHoursBefore = new Date(); twoHoursBefore.setHours(twoHoursBefore.getHours() - 2); And don't worry about if hours you set will be out of 0..23 range. Date() object will update the date accordingly.
