timedelay

In PHP, I want to put a number of second delay on each iteration of the loop. for ($i=0; $i <= 10; $i++) { $file_exists=file_exists($location.$filename); if($file_exists) { break; } //sleep for 3 seconds } How can I do this? Use PHP sleep() function. http://php.net/manual/en/function.sleep.php This stops execution of next loop for the given number of seconds. So something like this for ($i=0; $i <= 10; $i++) { $file_exists=file_exists($location.$filename); if($file_exists) { break; } sleep(3); // this should halt for 3 seconds for every loop } I see what you are doing... your delaying a script

I want to cause my program to pause for a certain number of milliseconds, how exactly would I do this? I have found different ways such as Thread.sleep( time ) , but I don't think that is what I need. I just want to have my code pause at a certain line for x milliseconds. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. This is the original code in C... extern void delay(UInt32 wait){ UInt32 ticks; UInt32 pause; ticks = TimGetTicks(); //use = ticks + (wait/4); pause = ticks + (wait); while(ticks < pause) ticks = TimGetTicks(); } wait is an amount of milliseconds Edward Falk OK, first of all, never

Hi Again Masters Of The Web :) Now, I have got a new stupid question, and I am asking to forgive me. I read everywhere about this solution, but didn't find the one that works for me. I have got: <input name="domain" type="text" id="domain" onKeyUp="javascript:chk_me();"> All I am asking is how to make this not to check after a button is pressed, but after to say 1000 miliseconds of keyboard inactivity? mck89 Try this: var timer; function chk_me(){ clearTimeout(timer); timer=setTimeout(function validate(){...},1000); } In this way every time a key is pressed, the timeout will be deleted and the

I'm working on an JavaFX 8 app right now, where i have a tableView and some textFields above which make it possible to search/filter for certain columns in the tableView. I have added a listener to the textFields, to trigger the filtering automatically when a change is detected. I used the code below to do this. textField_filterAddress.textProperty().addListener((observable, oldValue, newValue) -> { doSomething(); // in this case, filter table data and refresh tableView afterwards }); My question now is: what's the easiest way to integrate some kind of time delay, before the filtering gets

I'm currently trying to learn nodejs and a small project I'm working is writing an API to control some networked LED lights. The microprocessor controlling the LEDs has a processing delay, and I need to space commands sent to the micro at least 100ms apart. In C# I'm used to just calling Thread.Sleep(time), but I have not found a similar feature in node. I have found several solutions using the setTimeout(...) function in node, however, this is asynchronous and does not block the thread ( which is what I need in this scenario). Is anyone aware of a blocking sleep or delay function? Preferably

I don't know exactly how to word a search for this.. so I haven't had any luck finding anything.. :S I need to implement a time delay in C. for example I want to do some stuff, then wait say 1 minute, then continue on doing stuff. Did that make sense? Can anyone help me out? In standard C (C99), you can use time() to do this, something like: #include <time.h> : void waitFor (unsigned int secs) { unsigned int retTime = time(0) + secs; // Get finishing time. while (time(0) < retTime); // Loop until it arrives. } By the way, this assumes time() returns a 1-second resolution value. I don't think
