    Create a timer for a game

    I've got a puzzle game, and want to add a timer to it, and award more points for solving it quicker. But i'm not sure how to get the timer. Is this going to be done with java?

    ok, i know how to get the time. but how do i set it so that it starts at zero, and then starts count?

    date = new Date();
    time1 = date.getHours();
    time2 = date.getMinutes();
    time3 = date.getSeconds();
    timeint = setInterval(timer, 1000);

    function timer
    {
    date = new Date();
    time1 = date.getHours();
    time2 = date.getMinutes();
    time3 = date.getSeconds();
    }

    Download the animation package. It contains a timer as well.
