In addition to what Guido states, you'll have to take some other things into account...

What unit is your math in?

For the best accuracy, do the math in milliseconds as Guid's stackoverflow link suggests, and then convert to your desired unit.

With the two date fields in question, will they ever span a Daylight Saving Time change?

Check for this scenario and compensate when one date is in DST and one is not.

My code

var dt1= Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_date1").getValue();

var dt2= Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_date2").getValue();

var h= Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_hours").getValue();

var hours = 60*60*1000;

if (date1!= null && date2!=null) {

var diffHours = Math.round(Math.abs((dt2.getTime() - dt1.getTime())/(hours)));

}

h.setValue(diffHours );

------

but don't working
