converting milliseconds to hours and minutes

[deluxmilkman]

I have 2 Date objects and count down from now to ready,
and show it in the format of "00 HOURS and 00 MINS."

var now:Date = new Date();
var ready:Date = new Date(2008,9,10,12,0,0);

var dif:Number = (ready.valueOf() - now.valueOf());
trace(dif);

How can I convert difference to HOUR + MIN?

Please help.

P.S. I`m using A.S. 3.0

if the variable value contains the time in miliseconds then

var hr:Number = Math.floor(value / 3600000);
var min:Number = Math.floor((value % 3600000) / 60000);

1 s = 1000 ms
1 hr = 3600 s = (3600 * 1000) ms = 3600000 ms
1 min = 60 s = (60 * 1000) ms = 60000 ms
