JavaScript's version of ActionScript's Event.ENTER_FRAME event?

Question

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript\'s ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to li

Answer 1

Nope. Not really. A good substitute would be setInterval or setTimeout:

function doAllTheTime() { }
function wrapper() {
    doAllTheTime();
    setTimeout(wrapper, 40);
}
wrapper();

But even then, you're pretty limited, because you don't have access to any of the event object properties.
