settimeout and wait

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Hi,

If i understood well settimeout, it will run a “code” (function, part of code,..) at a particular time.

Settimout(“my_funct”, 2000);
will execute “my_funct” function in 2 s.

but if i write :
Settimout(“my_funct_1”, 2000);
Settimout(“my_funct_2”, 3000);

my_funct_1 will be executed in 2 s and my_func_2 will be executed only 1 s later of my_funct_1 executon has started.

so how can i do to make something like that ?
my_funct_1 : start in 2 s
my_funct_2 : start 2 s after the END of my_funct_1
it would be a typical wait or pause(2s)

thanks a lot

@mjdamatoNov 18.2006 — Add the call to my_funt_2 at the end of my_funct_1 with a 2 second settimeout. However, unless my_funct_1 is a long complex script, it most likely completes in less than 1/100th of a second making the added complexity moot. Just call my_funct_2 right after my_funct_1 with a 4 second timeout. Because if you are wanting these to be strictly aligned with respect to time, you might want to incorporate a timestamp.

Success!
