It's a little complicated to calculate delta time in js.
this is the pseudo-code,

var atime = 2010-12-05T08:03:22Z;

var btime = 2010-01-11T08:01:57Z



var delta_time = btime - atime; 

delta_time ?

I want to know exact date time between two time inputs.
is there any easy way to find out delta time?

var atime = new Date(2010-12-05T08:03:22Z);

var btime = new Date(2010-01-11T08:01:57Z);



var delta_time = btime - atime;

The value of delta_time will be the difference between the two dates in milliseconds.

If you're only interested in the difference, and don't care to differentiate between which is the later date, you might want to do

var delta_time = Math.abs(btime - atime);
