Text Blinking start and stop on button click -

var intervalA;
        var intervalB;

        $(document).ready(function () {

            $('#btnclick').click(function () {
                blinkFont();

                setTimeout(function () {
                    clearInterval(intervalA);
                    clearInterval(intervalB);
                }, 5000);
            });
        });

        function blinkFont() {
            document.getElementById("blink").style.color = "red"
            document.getElementById("blink").style.background = "black"
            intervalA = setTimeout("blinkFont()", 500);
        }

        function setblinkFont() {
            document.getElementById("blink").style.color = "black"
            document.getElementById("blink").style.background = "red"
            intervalB = setTimeout("blinkFont()", 500);
        }

    

    

        This is blinking text and background
