The datetime attribute of the <time> element is used to display the machine-readable date time.
Following is the syntax −
<time datetime="YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD">
Above, the attribute datetime displays the datetime −
- YYYY - year
- MM - month
- DD - day of the month
- hh - hour
- mm - minutes
- ss - seconds
- TZD - Time Zone Designator
You can also set PTDHMS −
- P - prefix for "Period"
- D - prefix for "Days"
- H - prefix for "Hours"
- M - prefix for "Minutes"
- S - prefix for "Seconds"
Let us now see an example to implement the datetime attribute of the <time> element −
Example
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h2>Exam Results</h2> <p><s>Result would be announced on 6th June.</s></p> <p>New date for results is next <time datetime="06-15">Saturday</time>.</p> </body> </html>
