<p>I am building a quiz and i need to calculate the total time taken to do the quiz.
and i need to display the time taken  in  HH::MM::SS..any pointers?</p>

new Date().time returns the time in milliseconds.
```
```
var nStart:Number = new Date().time;

// Some time passes

var nMillisElapsed:Number = new Date().time - nStart;

var strTime:String = Math.floor(nMillisElapsed / (1000 * 60 * 60)) + "::" + 
   (Math.floor(nMillisElapsed / (1000 * 60)) % 60) + "::" + 
   (Math.floor(nMillisElapsed / (1000)) % 60);
```
```
