delay

) I'm in a process of creating a memory game. My problem is that whenever i click for the second time, i can't even see toggled button. To be clear - first click toggles the togglebutton, so i can see the number it holds, the second click on a different togglebutton is suposed to toggle it, show me the number and then proceed to either set a score +1 if numbers are the same, or reverse them back again if they're different. Below is the code that i use as my onClick function, i've been thinking about putting some kind of sleep or delay function somwhere in the second "if block" - (if(klikniecia

This question already has an answer here: What is the JavaScript version of sleep()? 74 answers I have a javascript file, and in several places I want to add a small delay, so the script would reach that point, wait 3 seconds, and then continue with the rest of the code. The best way that I thought of doing this was to create a function, which I could call from anywhere in the script. function startDelay(lengthOfDelay) { //code to make it delay for lengthOfDelay amount of time } However, I can not find any way to implement the code to make it wait. I had a look at setTimeout, but you needed to

I am looking at some existing code in a web application. I saw this: window.setTimeout(function () { ... }) Is this the same as just executing the function content right away? angusC It won't necessarily run right away, neither will explicitly setting the delay to 0. The reason is that setTimeout removes the function from the execution queue and it will only be invoked after JavaScript has finished with the current execution queue. console.log(1); setTimeout(function() {console.log(2)}); console.log(3); console.log(4); console.log(5); //console logs 1,3,4,5,2 for more details see http:/
