如何将C＃DateTime与Javascript的Date.now（）进行比较

Question

I have some javascript that only needs to execute if it's been less than so-many-seconds since a date that is calculated on the server, but I'm having some trouble with the date comparison. Here's what I've tried:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var elapsedMillis = 10000;
    if(Date.now() - <%=(benchmarkDate-new DateTime(1970,1,1)).TotalMilliseconds%> < elapsedMillis)
    {
        //do stuff
    }
</script>

Unfortunately, the C# TimeSpan is giving me a number of milliseconds that varies from JavaScript's Date.now() by about 14,000 seconds even if executed within ten seconds of setting benchmarkDate.

This turned out to be a timezone issue because I didn't realize JavaScript's Date.now() was returning a UTC date. Here's my fix to convert the C# date to UTC first, just in case it helps someone else:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var elapsedMillis = 10000;
    if(Date.now() - <%=(benchmarkDate.ToUniversalTime()-new DateTime(1970,1,1)).TotalMilliseconds%> < elapsedMillis)
    {
        //do stuff
    }
</script>
