AudioWave Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I'm having trouble using multiple simple timing operations in a function. Here is what I have: <html><head><script type="text/javascript">function timeDisplay(){var t=setTimeout("document.write('H_')",100)var t=setTimeout("document.write('He_')",200)var t=setTimeout("document.write('Hel_')",300)var t=setTimeout("document.write('Hell_')",400)var t=setTimeout("document.write('Hello_')",500)}</script></head><body onload="timeDisplay()"></html> The resultAs you see, it only performs the first simple timing operation, than infinitly tries to load the rest. How do I fix this bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zanfranceschi Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Your code didn't work because when 'H_' is written in your document, all your document has (including the source) is 'H_'. And 'H_' would obviously never manipulate anything.I found this out on:http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom_shortIX.htmlmore precisely on:http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom...52.html#1026254This worked in my firefox 1.0.7... <html><head><script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">function escreve(string) { ifram.document.open(); ifram.document.write(string); ifram.document.close();}function timeDisplay(){ var t=setTimeout("escreve('H_');",100); var t=setTimeout("escreve('He_');",200); var t=setTimeout("escreve('Hel_');",300); var t=setTimeout("escreve('Hell_');",400); var t=setTimeout("escreve('Hello_');",500);}</script></head><body onLoad="timeDisplay();"><iframe src="about:blank" name="ifram" style="border: 0;"></iframe></body></html> See this here: http://www.zanfranceschi.com.br/etc/hello_.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
