SetInterval won't stop running

I have a function that uses setInterval, and it keeps running and it doesn't want to stop. The code I wrote is
let findGrid = setInterval(function () {
if (grid == null) {
grid = $('#QuickEntryGrid').getKendoGrid();
}
else {
clearFindGrid;
console.log("Found Grid");
console.log(grid.dataSource.view());
}
}, 100);
let clearFindGrid = function () {
clearInterval(findGrid);
};
if (grid != null) {
grid.setOptions({
width: (newInnerVerticalWidth - 2) + "px"
});
$("#QuickEntryGrid").find("table").on("keydown", onGridKeydown);
}
It keeps hitting the console.log(grid.dataSource.view());

You must call the funcion with the brakets clearFindGrid()

Play an audio file in Javascript

I'm trying to play an audio file in js. what am i doing wrong?
The script auto-stops after some events which is working 100%, now all I want to do is add a sound after it stops
Here is the code in:
function stop() {
stop_flag = true;
var audio = new Audio('play.mp3');
audio.play();
}
Here is the complete script.js the function is at the bottom.
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(function(message) {
if (message.action == "init") {
init(message.options.divider, message.options.delay, message.options.maxLosses);
}
if (message.action == "stop") {
stop();
}
});
var stop_flag;
function init(divider, delay, maxLosses) {
var $table = $('table.dice_table').last();
var lastBetNumber;
var lastBetValue;
var lastProfit;
var losses = 0;
stop_flag = false;
loop_start();
function loop_start() {
lastBetNumber = getLastBetNumber();
var betValue = (getCurrentBalance() / divider).toFixed(9);
//var betValue = (getCurrentBalance() / divider);
lastBetValue = betValue;
$("input.bet").val(betValue);
play();
setTimeout(loop, delay);
}
function loop() {
if (stop_flag)
return;
waitForTableChange()
.then(roll)
.catch(loop_start);
function roll() {
//only if the last bet has changed \/
lastBetNumber = getLastBetNumber();
lastProfit = $table.children('tbody').children('tr').first().children('td').last().text()[0];
changeBet();
if (losses >= maxLosses)
return;
play();
setTimeout(loop, delay);
}
}
function waitForTableChange() {
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
var n = 0;
attempt();
function attempt() {
n++;
if (n >= 100) {
reject();
return;
}
if (getLastBetNumber() == lastBetNumber) {
setTimeout(attempt, 100);
return;
}
resolve();
}
});
}
function changeBet() {
var newBetValue;
if (lastProfit == "-") {
losses++;
newBetValue = lastBetValue * 2;
} else {
losses = 0;
newBetValue = (getCurrentBalance() / divider).toFixed(9);
}
lastBetValue = newBetValue;
$("input.bet").val(newBetValue);
}
function play() {
$('input.clDicePlay').first()[0].click();
}
function getLastBetNumber() {
return $table.children('tbody').children('tr').first().children('td').first().text();
}
function getCurrentBalance() {
return $('.dice_select .chosen-single span').text().split('- ')[1].split(' ')[0];
}
}
function stop() {
var audio = new Audio('play.mp3');
stop_flag = true;
audio.play();
}

The problem is you are setting audio within the function stop(), which makes it local to that function. Once a function has been executed, all local vars are destroyed. You need to use the global scope to keep the object alive.
For example:
// set 'audio' in the global scope
var audio = new Audio('/path/to/default.mp3');
// create a play / pause button
function playPause(e) {
// NOTE: audio is from the gloabl scope
if (this.textContent == 'Play') {
audio.play();
this.textContent = 'Pause';
} else {
audio.pause();
this.textContent = 'Play';
}
}
window.onload = function() {
var a = document.getElementById('func');
a.addEventListener('click',playPause,false);
}
<button id="func">Play</button>

Nested function not work in Mozilla browser

i have call the below function in my application
function workerCall() {
debugger;
if (typeof (Worker) !== "undefined") {
var worker = new Worker("Scripts/worker.js");
worker.onmessage = workerResultReceiver;
worker.onerror = workerErrorReceiver;
worker.postMessage({ 'username': Username });
function workerResultReceiver(e) {
$('.NotificationCount').html(e.data);
if (parseInt(e.data) != 0 && currentPage == "Alert") {
StateFlag = false;
$('.Notification').show();
$('.Drildown').each(function () {
var temp = this.id;
if ($('#' + temp).attr('expand') == "true") {
currentTab = temp;
StateFlag = true;
}
});
currentScrollPosition = $('body').scrollTop();
GetAlerts();
} else {
$('.Notification').hide();
}
}
function workerErrorReceiver(e) {
console.log("there was a problem with the WebWorker within " + e);
}
}
else {
}
}
the method will execute in IE,Chrome but when comes to Mozilla i got an error ReferenceError: workerResultReceiver is not defined.How can i resolve this error?

This happens because you are making reference to function that is not created yet. You need to put this:
worker.onmessage = workerResultReceiver;
worker.onerror = workerErrorReceiver;
Above
function workerErrorReceiver
line or at the end of the scope.

Youtube api does not load on firefox

I have the following code snippet that controls an embedded youtube player. It works great on Chrome and Safari but not on Firefox.
jsfiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/fuSSn/4/
Code from my app:
the iframe:
<div class="tubeframe" id="video-frame-155" style="">
<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="350" height="262" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/hc5xkf9JqoE?HD=1;rel=0;showinfo=0;autohide=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" id="video-frame-155-frame"></iframe>
</div>
my javascript:
var source_tag = document.createElement("script");
var first_source_tag = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];
first_source_tag.parentNode.insertBefore(source_tag, first_source_tag);
// This function will be called when the API is fully loaded
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
YT_ready(true)
console.log("api loaded! yikes")
}
function getFrameID(id){
var elem = document.getElementById(id);
if (elem) {
if(/^iframe$/i.test(elem.tagName)) return id; //Frame, OK
// else: Look for frame
var elems = elem.getElementsByTagName("iframe");
if (!elems.length) return null; //No iframe found, FAILURE
for (var i=0; i<elems.length; i++) {
if (/^https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?youtube(?:-nocookie)?\.com(\/|$)/i.test(elems[i].src)) break;
}
elem = elems[i]; //The only, or the best iFrame
if (elem.id) return elem.id; //Existing ID, return it
// else: Create a new ID
do { //Keep postfixing `-frame` until the ID is unique
id += "-frame";
} while (document.getElementById(id));
elem.id = id;
return id;
}
// If no element, return null.
return null;
}
// Define YT_ready function.
var YT_ready = (function(){
var onReady_funcs = [], api_isReady = false;
return function(func, b_before){
if (func === true) {
api_isReady = true;
while(onReady_funcs.length > 0){
// Removes the first func from the array, and execute func
onReady_funcs.shift()();

logger.info("heyyy")
var videoId=155;
//if (videoId) {

console.log(Videos[155])
Videos[155].initVideo();
Videos[155].setOnStateChangeCallback(function(action, second, total) {
onStateChange(155, action, second, total);
});
//}
Videos[155].seekTo(1000, false);
onStateChange(155, "start", 0, 0);
});
I know that the required script tags are being added, I can test that from console. I also know that onYouTubePlayerAPIReady() is actually called. But I still receive errors like
TypeError: player.stopVideo is not a function
When I run the three lines that adds the source tag again from the web console on firefox, the api seems to load and everything starts working again.
I have been struggling with this for days and I really need help figuring out what might be wrong. If it helps my application is developed in ruby on rails but I don't think this is relevant information.
Thanks

There is no problem with the above code. My video was loaded in a bootstrap modal. Modal's hide property would make it invisible to firefox and firefox would not load the api at all. So I removed the modal hide class and instead of display:none I used item.css("visibility", "visible"); and item.css("visibility", "hidden"); which made firefox load the api.

jquery conflict with js script

welcome all ,
i have a problem with my images slider , it runs successfuly until poll script excuted then it stops , tried to combine both scripts didn't work also tried to use noConflict but in stops both of them .
this is the slider
(function ($) {
$.fn.s3Slider = function (vars) {
var element = this;
var timeOut = (vars.timeOut != undefined) ? vars.timeOut : 4000;
var current = null;
var timeOutFn = null;
var faderStat = true;
var mOver = false;
var items = $("#sliderContent .sliderImage");
var itemsSpan = $("#sliderContent .sliderImage span");
items.each(function (i) {
$(items[i]).mouseover(function () {
mOver = true
});
$(items[i]).mouseout(function () {
mOver = false;
fadeElement(true)
})
});
var fadeElement = function (isMouseOut) {
var thisTimeOut = (isMouseOut) ? (timeOut / 2) : timeOut;
thisTimeOut = (faderStat) ? 10 : thisTimeOut;
if (items.length > 0) {
timeOutFn = setTimeout(makeSlider, thisTimeOut)
} else {
console.log("Poof..")
}
};
var makeSlider = function () {
current = (current != null) ? current : items[(items.length - 1)];
var currNo = jQuery.inArray(current, items) + 1;
currNo = (currNo == items.length) ? 0 : (currNo - 1);
var newMargin = $(element).width() * currNo;
if (faderStat == true) {
if (!mOver) {
$(items[currNo]).fadeIn((timeOut / 6), function () {
if ($(itemsSpan[currNo]).css("bottom") == 0) {
$(itemsSpan[currNo]).slideUp((timeOut / 6), function () {
faderStat = false;
current = items[currNo];
if (!mOver) {
fadeElement(false)
}
})
} else {
$(itemsSpan[currNo]).slideDown((timeOut / 6), function () {
faderStat = false;
current = items[currNo];
if (!mOver) {
fadeElement(false)
}
})
}
})
}
} else {
if (!mOver) {
if ($(itemsSpan[currNo]).css("bottom") == 0) {
$(itemsSpan[currNo]).slideDown((timeOut / 6), function () {
$(items[currNo]).fadeOut((timeOut / 6), function () {
faderStat = true;
current = items[(currNo + 1)];
if (!mOver) {
fadeElement(false)
}
})
})
} else {
$(itemsSpan[currNo]).slideUp((timeOut / 6), function () {
$(items[currNo]).fadeOut((timeOut / 6), function () {
faderStat = true;
current = items[(currNo + 1)];
if (!mOver) {
fadeElement(false)
}
})
})
}
}
}
};
makeSlider()
}
})(jQuery);
and this is the poll script
window.onload = function() {
$(".sidePollCon").load("ar_poll.html", function(r, s, xhr) {
if (s == "error") {
$(".sidePollCon").load("poll.html");
} else {
$(".vote_booroo").html("صوت الان");
$(".viewresults").html("شاهد النتيجة");
$("fieldset p").html("");
$(".results_booroo p").html("");
$(".result_booroo").attr("src", "../images/poll_color.jpg");
}
});
};

One potential problem could be the window.onload assignment. It is very prone to conflict.
Every time you do window.onload = the previous assignemnt will be overridden. See demo here:
The output shows that the first window.onload assignment never gets called, while the jQuery alternative does get called.
jQuery.noConflict does little in this regard. All it does is to prevent override the $ symbol so that another lib can use it.
So if you are also using the window.onload event to invoke the slider, then you have conflict. You can easily solve this problem by using the jquery format:
$(window).load(function() {
...
});
However usually you would tie the event to $(document).load(function(){...}); or in short form: $(function(){...}).
So for your poll that would be:
$(function(){
$(".sidePollCon").load("ar_poll.html", function(r, s, xhr) {
if (s == "error") {
$(".sidePollCon").load("poll.html");
} else {
$(".vote_booroo").html("صوت الان");
$(".viewresults").html("شاهد النتيجة");
$("fieldset p").html("");
$(".results_booroo p").html("");
$(".result_booroo").attr("src", "../images/poll_color.jpg");
}
});
});
Hope that helps.

resolving conflicts in jquery (possibly with another JS library .. like script.aculo.us) can be resolved using noconflict()
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.noConflict/
$.noConflict();
but make sure that u have no error in your javascript code itself. use firebug and
console.log('') to test your script.
