var theTime = nowDateTime().toString().split(' ')[1];


This would return the current time in hh:mm:ss format. Is that what you are looking for?

If you need to convert a date and time to a numeric value. You need to use the following.



current.my_date_field.getGlideObject().getNumericValue();


This will convert to a numeric value not just a string. Here is a wiki article that compares 2 date fields

Not applicable



var today = new GlideDateTime();
gs.print(today.getTime().getNumericValue()/1000); // time, in seconds


is probably what you're after.
