Trying to get seconds from a bar

[sam.burn]

I have Hours and Minutes working but the Seconds no.

barHr = getHour()+"";
if (barHr != null && barHr < 10) barHr = "0"+barHr;
barMin = getMinute()+"";
if (barMin != null && barMin < 10) barMin = "0"+barMin;
barSec = getSecond()+"";
if (barSec != null && barSec < 10) barSec = "0"+barSec;
barTime = barHr + ":" + barMin + ":" + barSec;

borrowed code but help shows second() getSecond not Seconds
trying both still no go

The snippet of code you posted is working fine. Keep in mind that unless you are running the script on a tick based chart (ie intervals T, V, S, P and R) it will always return 00 seconds.
getSeconds() is a method of the Date Object and not a function like second() or getSecond() [the latter is actually a wrapper for the getValue() function requesting the seconds value]

I am running script that is tick based but not a chart (5min)

Even though you are running a script that executes on every tick you are requesting the seconds of the bar time which is always 0 except on tick based intervals (eg 10T, 500V, 0.5R, etc).
