Converting SECS (0306) in to Time (5:06)

I am trying to build a script that will convert SECONDS into HH:MM:SS, as in a duration for a song. I am able to supply the number of seconds in 4 digits... e.g. 0306 (which equals 5:06).

Can someone help with a script? I will need hours, minutes, seconds.

Thanks
Geoff

The leading zero indicates an octal number. Flash converts the value to
decimal.

Assuming 0306 is a string, use parseInt("0306",10);

Ahha -- I discovered a cause of my problems...

When 0306 is converted to an integer it becomes 198.

trace (int(0306) ); // =198

Why is this? How can I convert 0306 to 306?

Thanks
Geoff
