You'll have to pad your digits.

Try this:

var h = new Date(timestamp).getHours();

var m = new Date(timestamp).getMinutes();



h = (h<10) ? '0' + h : h;

m = (m<10) ? '0' + m : m;



var output = h + ':' + m;

Or place the padding in a function:

function pad(val){

     return (val<10) ? '0' + val : val;

}

And use that like this:

var h = new Date(timestamp).getHours();

var m = new Date(timestamp).getMinutes();

var output = pad(h) + ':' + pad(m);
