[jQuery] Re: Pause after .load request
There is no 'delay' or 'pause' in Javascript, you have to use a timeout or interval. Maybe this will work (interval, vars passed with a closure, if instead of while): $(document).ready(function() { var date_reg = $(input#date_requested).val(); var counter = -1; slideTimer = setInterval((function(date,counter){ //global var if (counter = date) { $('#result').load('/get_time_lapse.pl', {date_requested:date}); counter++; date--; } else { clearInterval(slideTimer); } })(date_reg,counter),2000); }); - ricardo On Nov 16, 3:22 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I'm trying to fetch some data from a Perl script and have it begin to display as many times as there is data.

[jQuery] Re: Pause after .load request
I've been trying to play around with this, my javascript knowledge is very limit still (learning!). I keep getting this error: Error: useless setInterval call (missing quotes around argument?) I changed the script after running it a bit, to try and fix the error, still having problems: $(document).ready(function() { var date_reg = $(input#date_requested).val(); var counter = -1; slideTimer = setInterval((function(date_reg,counter){ //global var if (counter = date_reg) { $('#result').load('/get_time_lapse.pl', {date_requested: date_reg}); counter++; date_reg--; } else { clearInterval(slideTimer); } })(date_reg,counter),2000); }); On Nov 16, 1:04 pm, ricardobeat [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There is no 'delay' or 'pause' in Javascript, you have to use a timeout or interval.

[jQuery] Re: Pause after .load request
Ah, sorry. I made a mistake, this should work: $(document).ready(function() { var date_reg = $(input#date_requested).val(); var counter = -1; slideTimer = setInterval((function(date_reg,counter){ return function(){ //global var if (counter = date_reg) { $('#result').load('/get_time_lapse.pl', {date_requested: date_reg}); counter++; date_reg--; } else { clearInterval(slideTimer); } };})(date_reg,counter),2000); }); On Nov 16, 8:36 pm, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've been trying to play around with this, my javascript knowledge is very limit still (learning!).
