I am not sure i understand your problem fully Matteo but i tried the
following code with a break point on > var bob = 1;
and it stopped there every time. i.e. your code seems to work fine
var cminutes = 5;
var startminutes = 2;
function elapseddistance() {
if ((cminutes) > (startminutes-1)) {
//do something i know it's working
var bob =1;
}
var t;
t=setTimeout("elapseddistance()",100);
}
// Main
function load() {
elapseddistance();
}
