JS Function Use To Force A Time Delay Without Having The Code Continue To Run?
Aug 1, 2011
Is there another JS function that I can use to force a time delay without having the code continue to run? I'm using the setTimeout() function but the call to this function doesn't stop the code flow. I need to stop the code flow while waiting. I guess I need a Sleep() type of JS function.What I'm trying to do is display some blank text on the screen using a for loop (I'm using <BR> to give the appearance of "opening up" a vertical window section in the browser) and I need this 'text' to complete before allowing the following code in the function to execute. The following code will display a Table with rows of data. I'm trying to use a timing function to give a visual impression of a window opening up just before the data displays.

Using javascript, I want to force a browser window to close after about 30 minutes of non-use. Can someone point me to a script that can do this?
I assume I could use the setTimeout function and keep re-setting it whenever the mouse is moved.

I have a drop down menu system, however at the moment when you accidently leave the drop-down, it disappears straight away. I would like there to be a half a second delay before it goes away, any idea how I might add this to the onmouseout function?

Here is the script i'm working on:
The script currently asks for the amount of tabs to open then opens them when the amount is selected.
What i need to do is slow down the time between each open window to like 1000 millisecs i have tried using thread.sleep but then it only opens 1 tab.

[URL]. The second link to the right "Eat our Famous" is the link in question, you'll notice the div on the left has about a 3 second delay.

I've got a selection of 4 images/banners there all the same size and fit into the website layout perfectly, what I'm after is a small bit of java that will change the image from 1 - 4 and then loop to do it again all on a timed delay.
The code I'm using was pulled from a slide show exsample and i've just removed asmuch of the code as was possible.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Slideshow</title>

I need to delay a page from opening a new window for a minimum of 5 seconds to allow some php processing (inserting a new record into a table) to occur first. the open window code works fine without the time delay, but as soon as i attempt to put a delay in, nothing happens eg, the page no longer opens a new window called newrecord.php.
A submit button calls the function like so:

I am using jquery validation plugin successfully to validate certain fields against my server. The thing is sometimes user types too fast, and the validation plugin sends the word if not equal to the previously sent word. This causes some problems with my mod-evasive that I run in apache. Is there anyway to slow down these requests, or say post to server each 300ms. The jquery UI autosuggest has this feature, where you can set a delay time.

have a select element that has a function attached via onchange. The function does some AJAX using the HTML_AJAX library.
When I use Firefox, if I select an item in the list, then the code executes in a timely manner, which means that I see lines 1 and 2 of my debugging output (displayed at the end of this posting). The code then displays a wait window. A second or so later, I see the third and final line of debugging output when the AJAX call has completed. The wait window then disappears. Yaay!
However (and you knew that this was coming even without the "IE" tag in the subject header, didn't you?), with Internet Explorer, I see no debug output nor wait window until AFTER the AJAX call has completed one second or so later. Suddenly, every line of debug output is displayed and the code is executed. Boo!
"Hold on! Are you saying that your Javascript code isn't being executed until after the AJAX call?"
This is what I am seeing with Internet Explorer! Even if I insert an alert() message in the code, I do not see it until AFTER the AJAX call has completed, even though it appears in the code before the AJAX call. Then, I see my alert() message. I do not see the wait window because it is displayed and immediately closed during the rush of code that executes after the AJAX call has completed. The whole idea of the wait window is to display while the AJAX call is working.
Here is the code for the select element:
HTML Code:
<select id="txtfieldNbNights" tabindex="4"
onblur="return ValidNbNights(this, 4, true);"
onchange="return OnNbNightsChanged(this);">

I'm trying to build an image gallery and I want to shrink all the images a bit to allow for enlarging them on mouseover. I have it working fine locally, but when deployed to my server it doesn't work because the image files are still loading as the javascript executes. What I wind up with is the js using the image's alt tag's text size as the image size, which then gets resized to create a squashed image. What I want to do is preload all the thumbnail images before the the function to resize them gets called so the resize function has the proper dimensions of the images to do the transformation on. I'm using the jQuery.Preload plugin for my preloading functionality.
$(document).ready(function(){
[Code]...
My expectation of this code is that the enable_anim_resize() function will not be called until all the images are loaded, but I don't see any difference in this execution than if I just sequentially put in my resize code after the preload line and didn't use the onFinished callback for the preload method (example below:) $(document).ready(function(){ From my understanding of the documentation and examples of the preload plugin, the enable_anim_resize() function shouldn't be called until all images on the page are loaded, at which point the proper dimensions of these images should be available for correct resizing. Can anyone clue me in on what I'm missing here?

I have an image rotator that uses nested intervals. The outer one switches the images, and the inner one preforms the fade. The problem is is that the display is not updated during the interval function, and so, the fade is not displayed; the new image just appears- no fade. Is there anyway to force the display to update during the interval? Here is the code:

I have this function delayLoad()
function delayLoad()
{
setTimeout('window.open('test.swf','FacNews', 'width=303,height=757,left=1005,top=0')',3000);
}
test.swf is a flash file within the same folder. I am invoking this function using
<body onload="delayLoad()">
What am I doing wrong for this not to delay the load by three seconds? I am having a system login that spawns a child window so I need to delay the window load of the swf so that it is on top. Its been years since I've done javascript, is there some other kind of methodology that I could possibly use?

I want to be able to display the whole contents of a text file containing 4 paragraphs of text, on a static web page, as soon as a video finishes playing on the page. The video is to be set to autorun as soon as the page loads in the browser.
The text file mentioned above, is to remain hidden when the page initially loads and the video is playing. Please I need your advice about what JavaScript code to use to achieve this effect, and where to place the code in the HTML code of the web page. I am new to website design and the use of JavaScript code.
I have seen examples of code used for the timed delay of the display of an image file, after a video has finished playing. I do not know how to apply this to the display of a text file.

Why not a plugin like (small correction void should be a string)
$.fn.delay = function(delay){
if(typeof delay==="undefined") delay = 1000;
return this.animate({"void":0}, delay);
}
This way you can call it like this
$('#element').delay().effect('pulsate');

I'm having some weird problem with evaluating the continue statement.
Within a for loop I'm trying to evaluate a string (generated somewhere
earlier) which basically has the continue statement in it. IE6 seems to
have major problems with that as it generates an error "Can't have
'continue' outside of loop". Does anyone know why and/or have a
workaround? I haven't tried any other browser since this one is the
only one available (company policy).
I have included some code to reproduce this behaviour. The first and
second if statements of the testeval function behave as expected. The
third one however produces the mentionned error. Code:
