clearinterval() outside of jquery plugin

I create plugin something like this
timer plugin
(function($) {
$.fn.timer = function(options) {
var defaults = {
seconds: 60
};
var options = $.extend(defaults, options);
return this.each(function() {
var seconds = options.seconds;
var $this = $(this);
var timerIntval;
var Timer = {
setTimer : function() {
clearInterval(timerIntval);
if(seconds <= 0) {
alert("timeout");
}else {
timerIntval = setInterval(function(){
return Timer.getTimer();
}, 1000);
}
},
getTimer : function () {
if (seconds <= 0) {
$this.html("0");
} else {
seconds--;
$this.html(seconds);
}
}
}
Timer.setTimer();
});
};
})(jQuery);
and I call the plugin like this.
$(".myTimer").timer({
seconds : 100
});
i called the plugin at timerpage.php. When i changed the page to xxx.php by clicking another menu, the timer interval is still running and i need to the clear the timer interval.
i created a webpage using jquery ajax load. so my page was not refreshing when i change to another menu.
my question is, how to clear the timer interval or destroy the plugin when i click another menu?

Please try with following modifications:
timer plugin:
(function($) {
$.fn.timer = function(options) {
var defaults = {
seconds: 60
};
var options = $.extend(defaults, options);
return this.each(function() {
var seconds = options.seconds;
var $this = $(this);
var timerIntval;
var Timer = {
setTimer : function() {
clearInterval(timerIntval);
if(seconds <= 0) {
alert("timeout");
}else {
timerIntval = setInterval(function(){
return Timer.setTimer();
}, 1000);
$this.data("timerIntvalReference", timerIntval); //saving the timer reference for future use
}
},
getTimer : function () {
if (seconds <= 0) {
$this.html("0");
} else {
seconds--;
$this.html(seconds);
}
}
}
Timer.setTimer();
});
};
})(jQuery);
Now in some other JS code which is going to change the div content
var intervalRef = $(".myTimer").data("timerIntvalReference"); //grab the interval reference
clearInterval(intervalRef); //clear the old interval reference
//code to change the div content on menu change
For clearing timer associated with multiple DOM element, you may check below code:
//iterate ovel all timer element:
$("h3[class^=timer]").each(function(){
var intervalRef = $(this).data("timerIntvalReference"); //grab the interval reference
clearInterval(intervalRef);
});
Hope this will give an idea to deal with this situation.

Instead of var timerIntval; set the variable timerInterval on the window object, then you will have the access this variable until the next refresh.
window.timerIntval = setInterval(function() {
Then when the user clicks on any item menu you can clear it:
$('menu a').click(function() {
clearInterval(window.timerIntval);
});
Live example (with multiple intervals)
$('menu a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
console.log(window.intervals);
for (var i = 0; i < window.intervals.length; i++) {
clearInterval(window.intervals[i]);
}
});
(function($) {
$.fn.timer = function(options) {
var defaults = {
seconds: 60
};
var options = $.extend(defaults, options);
return this.each(function() {
if (!window.intervals) {
window.intervals = [];
}
var intervalId = -1;
var seconds = options.seconds;
var $this = $(this);
var Timer = {
setTimer : function() {
clearInterval(intervalId);
if(seconds <= 0) {
alert("timeout");
} else {
intervalId = setInterval(function(){
//Timer.getTimer();
return Timer.getTimer();
}, 1000);
window.intervals.push(intervalId);
}
},
getTimer : function () {
if (seconds <= 0) {
$this.html("0");
} else {
seconds--;
$this.html(seconds);
}
}
}
Timer.setTimer();
});
};
})(jQuery);
$(".myTimer").timer({
seconds : 100
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<menu>
Menu 1
</menu>
<div class="myTimer"></div>
<div class="myTimer"></div>
Just notice that it's little bit risky because you can only run it once otherwise the interval id of the second will override the first.

Javascript Countdown Timer redirect after End

I have a JavaScript Countdown and I want it to redirect to another site when the countdown ends.
How can I do that?
Code:
(function ( $ ) {
"use strict";
$.fn.countdownTimer = function( options ) {
// This is the easiest way to have default options.
var settings = $.extend({
endTime: new Date()
}, options );
var $this = $(this);
var $seconds = $this.find(".time.seconds");
var $minutes = $this.find(".time.minutes");
var $hours = $this.find(".time.hours");
var $days = $this.find(".time.days");
var seconds = 0;
var minutes = 0;
var days = 0;
var hours = 0;
var switchCountdownValue = function ($obj, val) {
// Add leading zero
var s = val+"";
while (s.length < 2) s = "0" + s;
if(Modernizr.cssanimations) {
// Fade out previous
var prev = $obj.find(".value").addClass("fadeOutDown").addClass("animated");
// Add next value
var next = $("<div class='value'>" + s + "</div>");
$obj.prepend(next);
// Fade in next value
next.addClass("fadeInDown").addClass("animated");
// Remove from DOM on animation end
// Fix for Safari (if window is not active, then webkitAnimationEnd doesn't fire, so delete it on timeout)
var to = setTimeout(function(){ prev.remove() }, 200);
prev.one('webkitAnimationEnd mozAnimationEnd MSAnimationEnd oanimationend animationend', function(){
prev.remove();
clearTimeout(to);
});
} else {
// Remove previous value
var prev = $obj.find(".value").remove();
// Add next value
var next = $("<div class='value'>" + s + "</div>");
$obj.prepend(next);
}
}
var timerId = countdown(settings.endTime,
function(ts) {
if(seconds != ts.seconds) {
switchCountdownValue($seconds, ts.seconds);
seconds = ts.seconds;
}
if(minutes != ts.minutes) {
switchCountdownValue($minutes, ts.minutes);
minutes = ts.minutes;
}
if(hours != ts.hours) {
switchCountdownValue($hours, ts.hours);
hours = ts.hours;
}
if(days != ts.days) {
switchCountdownValue($days, ts.days);
days = ts.days;
}
},
countdown.DAYS|countdown.HOURS|countdown.MINUTES|countdown.SECONDS);
return this;
};}( jQuery ));
HTML:
<script type="text/javascript">
$().ready(function(){
$(".countdown").countdownTimer({
endTime: new Date("May 13, 2016 20:00:00")
});
$("#notifyMe").notifyMe();
$("#bg-canvas").bezierCanvas({
maxStyles: 1,
maxLines: 50,
lineSpacing: .07,
spacingVariation: .07,
colorBase: {r: 120,g: 100,b: 220},
colorVariation: {r: 50, g: 50, b: 30},
moveCenterX: 0,
moveCenterY: 0,
delayVariation: 3,
globalAlpha: 0.4,
globalSpeed:30,
});
$().ready(function(){
$(".overlap .more").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$("body,html").animate({scrollTop: $(window).height()});
});
});
});
</script>

The Countdown is working perfectly, but I want a redirect when the Countdown ends.
Edit:
Thanks for helping but my problem is, how can I make the if question or how can I check when the countdown has finished?
I know how to make a redirect but I dont know how to check if the countdown is finished.

How to redirect to another webpage in JavaScript/jQuery?
// similar behavior as an HTTP redirect
window.location.replace("http://stackoverflow.com");
// similar behavior as clicking on a link
window.location.href = "http://stackoverflow.com";
as long as your countdown is working, as you said.
Edit.
try the check here:
var timerId = countdown(settings.endTime,
function(ts) {
if(seconds != ts.seconds) {
switchCountdownValue($seconds, ts.seconds);
seconds = ts.seconds;
}
if(minutes != ts.minutes) {
switchCountdownValue($minutes, ts.minutes);
minutes = ts.minutes;
}
if(hours != ts.hours) {
switchCountdownValue($hours, ts.hours);
hours = ts.hours;
}
if(days != ts.days) {
switchCountdownValue($days, ts.days);
days = ts.days;
}
// maybe this will work.
// I didn't check your countdown library because it's minified / uglified
if(days == 0 && hours == 0 && minutes == 0 && seconds == 0){
//redirect here
}
},
countdown.DAYS|countdown.HOURS|countdown.MINUTES|countdown.SECONDS);

How about extending your countdownTimer class to add a onDone function to be executed upon completion of the countdown?
...
var settings = $.extend({
endTime: new Date(),
onDone: function () {
window.location.href('http://www.google.com')
}
}, options );
...
Then have your component execute that method when the countdown finishes:
...
prev.one('webkitAnimationEnd ...', function(){
if (settings.onDone) {
settings.onDone();
}
});
...
Just a thought, but to simply answer the question of redirect, then #nonsensei's should suffice.

Countdown and bootstrap progress bar "bump"

I'm working on a little "web app" for a quiz.
Each slide has got a certain amount of time to be answered (or 0 to infinite time).
I find JS here to do the countdown:
function Countdown(options) {
var timer,
instance = this,
seconds = options.seconds || 10,
updateStatus = options.onUpdateStatus || function () {},
counterEnd = options.onCounterEnd || function () {};
function decrementCounter() {
updateStatus(seconds);
if (seconds === 0) {
counterEnd();
instance.stop();
}
seconds--;
}
this.start = function () {
clearInterval(timer);
timer = 0;
seconds = options.seconds;
timer = setInterval(decrementCounter, 1000);
};
this.stop = function () {
clearInterval(timer);
};
}
var myCounter = new Countdown({
seconds: timetogo, // number of seconds to count down
onUpdateStatus: function (sec) {
elapsed = timetogo - sec;
$('.progress-bar').width(((elapsed / timetogo) * 100) + "%");
}, // callback for each second
onCounterEnd: function () {
//alert('counter ended!');
} // final action
});
myCounter.start();
I made a jsfiddle here :
https://jsfiddle.net/mitchum/kz2400cc/2/
But i am having trouble when you go to the next slide, the progress bar "bump".
after looking into "live source panel from chrome" I saw it's like the first "counter" is not stopped and still runs.
Do you have any tips or hint to help me to solve my bug ?
Thanks

You must pay attention to the scope of the variables. I change the "var myCounter" under document ready in "var myCounterFirst". Check the updated JSFiddle.
var timetogoFirst = $('.current').attr("data-time");
var myCounterFirst = new Countdown({
seconds: timetogoFirst, // number of seconds to count down
onUpdateStatus: function (sec) {
elapsed = timetogoFirst - sec;
$('.progress-bar').width(((elapsed / timetogoFirst) * 100) + "%");
}, // callback for each second
onCounterEnd: function () {
alert('counter ended!');
} // final action
});
myCounterFirst.start();

Stop Timer after Reaching a certain time

Using a javascript timer, I have a Timer that starts at 00:00, and should stop at 00:10 (runs for 10 seconds).
The problem is, how can I continuously check the current value of the timer to stop it after 10 seconds?
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var timer = new Tock({
callback: function () {
$('#clockface').val(timer.msToTime(timer.lap()));
}
});
timer.start("00:01.780");
}
</script>
<h2>Timer</h2>
<input id="clockface" placeholder="00:00:00">
Current Attempts:
setTimeout(timer,1000);
$('#clockface').change(function(){
if($('#clockface').val() == "00:05.000") {
timer.stop();
alert("True");
} else {
alert("False");
}
})

This seems to work (JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/gabrieldeliu/jLg2wvvL/1/):
var start_time;
var timer = new Tock({
callback: function() {
if (start_time && timer.lap() - start_time > 5000) {
console.log('Stopped at ' + timer.msToTime(timer.lap()));
timer.stop();
}
}
});
timer.start("00:01.780");
start_time = timer.lap();
console.log('Starts at ' + timer.msToTime(start_time));

Try like this:
var init = new Date().getTime();
var inter = setInterval(function(){
if(new Date().getTime() - init > 1000)
{
clearInterval(inter);
return;
}
}, 2500);

JS- Countdown Timer Alerts

Need some help with my code, I can't get my alerts to work with my countdown timer. They should be alerting at 4,3,2 minutes left on the timer. I currently can't get the alerts to fire at all, sometimes they would fire but each second after 4, the alert for "4" would fire. I need it to just go once... Any help would be appreciated
Heres my script
var running=false
var endTime=null
var timerID=null
function startTimer(){
running=true
now=new Date()
now=now.getTime()
endTime=now+(1000*60*5)
showCountDown()
}
function showCountDown(){
var now=new Date()
now=now.getTime()
if (endTime-now<=239990 && endTime-now>240010){alert("4")};
if (endTime-now<=179990 && endTime-now>180010){alert("3")};
if (endTime-now<=119990 && endTime-now>120010){alert("2")};
if (endTime-now<=0){
stopTimer()
alert("Time is up. Put down pencils")
} else {
var delta=new Date(endTime-now)
var theMin=delta.getMinutes()
var theSec=delta.getSeconds()
var theTime=theMin
theTime+=((theSec<10)?":0" : ":")+theSec
document.forms[0].timerDisplay.value=theTime
if (running){
timeID=setTimeout("showCountDown()",1000)
}
}
}
function stopTimer(){
clearTimeout(timeID)
running=false
document.forms[0].timerDisplay.value="0.00"
}
Update, Sorry meant minutes instead of seconds
Update 2: Change the ifs, now they fire but keep firing after the 4 second mark
if (endTime-now<=240010 && endTime-now<=239990){alert("4")};
if (endTime-now<=180010 && endTime-now<=179990){alert("3")};
if (endTime-now<=120010 && endTime-now<=119990){alert("2")};

Why are you calling clearTimeout? setTimeout invokes its callback only once. There is no need to clear it. Also you could just have a variable that stores the minutes until the end of the countdown and decrement that by one in each iteration.
The simplest solution might look like this
function startTimer(minutesToEnd) {
if(minutesToEnd > 0) {
if(minutesToEnd <= 4) {
console.log(minutesToEnd);
}
setTimeout(startTimer, 60000, minutesToEnd - 1);
} else {
console.log("Time is up. Put down pencils")
}
}

I actually spent some time working on this. I have no idea if this is what you wanted, but I created a timer library. I have a working demo for you. I had fun making this. Let me know what you think:
JS:
(function () {
var t = function (o) {
if (!(this instanceof t)) {
return new t(o);
}
this.target = o.target || null;
this.message = o.message;
this.endMessage = o.endMessage;
//setInterval id
this.si = -1;
//Initial start and end
this.startTime = null;
this.endTime = null;
this.interTime = null;
this.duration = o.duration || 1000 * 60 * 5;
//looping speed miliseconds it is best to put the loop at a faster speed so it doesn't miss out on something
this.loop = o.loop || 300;
//showing results miliseconds
this.show = o.show || 1000;
};
t.fn = t.prototype = {
init: function () {}
};
//exporting
window.t = t;
})();
//Timer Functions ---
t.fn.start = function () {
this.startTime = new Date();
this.interTime = this.startTime.getTime();
this.endTime = new Date().setMilliseconds(this.startTime.getMilliseconds() + this.duration);
//returns undefined... for some reason.
console.log(this.endTime);
var $this = this;
this.writeMessage(this.duration);
this.si = setInterval(function () {
var current = new Date(),
milli = current.getTime();
if (milli - $this.interTime >= $this.show) {
var left = $this.endTime- milli;
if (left <= 0) {
$this.stop();
} else {
$this.interTime = milli;
$this.writeMessage(left);
}
}
}, this.loop);
return this;
};
t.fn.writeMessage = function(left){
this.target.innerHTML = this.message + ' ' + Math.floor(left / 1000);
return this;
};
t.fn.stop = function () {
//stopping the timer
clearInterval(this.si);
this.target.innerHTML = this.endMessage;
return this;
};
//Not chainable
t.fn.isRunning = function () {
return this.timer > -1;
};
var timer = t({
target: document.getElementById('results'),
loop: 50,
duration: 10000,
show: 1000, //default is at 1000 miliseconds
message: 'Time left: ', //If this is ommited then only the time left will be shown
endMessage: 'Time is up. Put down your pencils'
}).start();
document.getElementById('stop').onclick = function(){
timer.stop();
};
HTML:
<div id="results"></div>
<button id="stop">Stop</button>
