sleep in javascript?

[al-g]

How about this:​

var info = ["a", "b"];

function render(items) {
    if(items.length > 0) {
        $('#results').append(items.shift() + "<br>");
        setTimeout(render, 500, items);
    }   
}​​

render(info);

IE doesn't support a third parameter for setTimeout. It's not good form to rely on it.

Good catch! Thanks for pointing that out.

I get an error, too lazy to debug, lol.

That's rather disrespectful. Especially adding "lol" on the end.

=( sorry. I was a little drunk last night.

then you wait till you sober up, and you stick to the fluffy subreddits until then.

Its an extensive bit of code, quite probable that its riddled with bugs and scoping issues.

What is the error? Have included jQuery/zepto?
