I want to change interval value of setInterval dynamically. I'm struggling due to presence of a loop in setInterval callback function. I have seen too many questions on stackoverflow. But there is no any solution which can help me. If anyone know answer then please explain with an example. Thank You. Here is my code.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var speed = 10;
function updateSlider(slideAmount) {
speed = slideAmount;
}
function load() {
downloadUrl("points.xml", function (data) {
/* code */
abc();
});
function abc() {
function track() {
/* code */
downloadUrl("points.xml", function (data) {
var xml = data.responseXML;
var points = xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("point");
var i = 0;
setInterval(function () {
if (i != points.length) {
alert(speed);
}
i++;
}, 100 * speed);
});
}
track();
}
}
function downloadUrl(url, callback) {
var request = window.ActiveXObject ? new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP') : new XMLHttpRequest;
request.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (request.readyState == 4) {
request.onreadystatechange = doNothing;
callback(request, request.status);
}
};
request.open('GET', url, true);
request.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "text/xml");
request.send(null);
}
function doNothing() {
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="load();">
<div id="slider">
5% <input id="slide" type="range" min="1" max="20" step="5" value="10" onchange="updateSlider(this.value)" /> 200%
</div>
<div id="chosen">10</div>
</body>
