Javascript if time

Question

Is there a way to use this code with regular time formats and not military time???

function myFunction() {
var time = new Date().getHours();
var greeting;
if (time < 13 ) {
greeting = "David is currently in the lab writting code!";
} else {
greeting = "David is not in the lab programming right now, feel free to leave a comment!!!";
}
document.getElementById("status").innerHTML = greeting;
}
I kinda want it to be like in between the times of 7am to 11pm I'm coding....

Answer 1

"military time" is the reqular time format for me.

Why don't you just change your if statement to
if(time > 7 && time < 13) {
//I'm coding
}

You could use this following example to use 24 hours as 12 hours system

var time = new Date().getHours();
if(time > 12) {
//It's pm
time = (time - 12) + "pm";
} else {
//It's am
time = time + "am";
}
