freeze

I have a simple javascript loop as you seen below: function runCode() { $("#sample-span").removeAttr("style"); for (var i = 0; i < 100000; i++) { console.log(new Date()); } $("#sample-span").toggleClass("colorized"); } That toggle class of span in the page as below: <span id="sample-span" style="color: orange;">Sample Text</span> <input type="button" value="click to run" onclick="runCode()" /> <style> span { color: blue; } .colorized { color: red; } </style> The problem is that when the loop is running the page freezes and can't see that span color changes. How can I solve this problem?

I encountered this problem and there was no clear explanation about how to work around this bug. The latest version of R (v. 3.1.2) for OS X Mavericks freezes in Yosemite whenever I try to save a file which is written using R's internal editor. It also freezes when you try to source a function. Edit: This was supposed to be a self-answered question, but I found a better answer, so I marked that as the answer. I have run into the same problem. I haven't tried Metallica's answer but found the problem has 95% disappeared after installing the latest "patch" version of R , as found at att.com .

I am unable to make an executable from my python program which uses Pmw (Python mega widgets). I use cx_Freeze (through gui backend "Gui2Exe"). Searching Pmw site I've found that it's caused by how the Pmw library checks for modules when ran and it doesn't work when you use py2exe or similar programs because the libraries are in a zip file. More info can be found here: http://pmw.sourceforge.net/doc/dynamicloader.html So they give a solution in that page, under "Freezing Pmw", by providing a script which generates a single standalone Pmw module which you can easily freeze. However, that script

I'm working on a page with a fixed menu that picks up after the user has scrolled a certain distance from the top, and as they scroll down the page, different links from the menu are given a class that changes the color. All of this seems to work well in Chrome and Safari, but in Firefox, the page freezes at the top. I'm wondering if it is looping through some code incessantly...essentially freezing the window. Here is my code. $.localScroll({ onBefore: function() { $('body').data('scroll-executing', true); }, onAfter: function() { $('body').data('scroll-executing', false); $(window).trigger(

I have some javascript that fires off about 100 calls to a php script. the php script uses up a lot of memory and takes a few seconds to complete, then returns a json response of pass or fail. I don't want the ajax calls to be asynchronous as the server would come to a grinding halt running 100 instances of itself, so I tried using synchronous, the only problem being it freezes the webpage while it calls the script one call at a time. How can I fire off the ajax calls one at a time and not freeze the page i'm on? var a = []; a[0] = 'test'; a[1] = 'hello'; a[2] = 'another'; $(document).ready
