is there a way to start timer only after a button is clicked in the given jsfiddle link
http://jsfiddle.net/Bwdfw/98/
var seconds=0;
var Score=0;
var index=0;
countdown(60);
function countdown(sec) {
seconds = sec;
tick();
}
function tick() {
var counter = document.getElementById("timer");
seconds--;
counter.innerHTML = "Time : " + String(seconds);
if(seconds>60 && Score<30)
{
alert("Not enough Score");
}
if( seconds > 0 ) {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
}
}
Have a function inside the click handler and a variable which states if the function has started or not.
Also you can club the click events inside a single handler and the index can be stored as part of the data-* attributes which reduces duplicated code.
Javascript
//Timer //
var seconds = 0,
Score = 0,
index = 0,
timerStarted = false;
function countdown(sec) {
seconds = sec;
tick();
}
function tick() {
var counter = document.getElementById("timer");
seconds--;
counter.innerHTML = "Time : " + String(seconds);
if (seconds > 60 && Score < 30) {
alert("Not enough Score");
}
if (seconds > 0) {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
}
}
$("#one, #two, #three").click(function () {
if(!timerStarted) {
countdown(60);
timerStarted = true;
}
var dataIndex = $(this).data('index');
if (index == dataIndex) {
Score++;
if(dataIndex == 2) {
index = 0;
} else {
index++;
}
}
$("#score").html("Score: " + Score);
});
HTML
<div id="timer"></div>
<div id="score">Score: 0</div>
<button id="one" type="button" data-index="0">Button1</button>
<button id="two" type="button" data-index="2">Button2</button>
<button id="three" type="button" data-index="1">Button3</button>
Check Fiddle
var seconds=0;
var Score=0;
var index=0;
var started = false;
function countdown(sec) {
seconds = sec;
tick();
}
function tick() {
var counter = document.getElementById("timer");
seconds--;
counter.innerHTML = "Time : " + String(seconds);
if(seconds>60 && Score<30)
{
alert("Not enough Score");
}
if( seconds > 0 ) {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
}
}
$("button").click(function(){
if(!started){
started = true;
countdown(60);
}
});
You could generate custom event after click
$(window).trigger('clicked');
$(window).on('clicked', function() {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
});

Just remember to check if the countdown has not started yet.
$("button").click(function(){
});
This will add a handler to all the buttons in your DOM, then just check the status of the countdown.

I'm just starting with javascript, I've been trying to make a simple stopwatch, I found a couple of ways to do it , then I came across this function ... the code doesn't work as a stopwatch unless we return a function , can somebody help me understand why????
for (var i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
var tick = function(i) {
return ()=>{console.log(i);}
};
setTimeout(tick(i), 500 * i);
}
You should use setInterval and clearInterval for your case.
var i = 10;
var tick = function(i) {
return ()=>{
console.log(i--);
if(i == 0) clearInterval(timer);
}
};
var timer = setInterval(tick(i), 500);
If you want to have stopwatch, you can clearInterval in stop button click event
function stop(){
clearInterval(timer);
}
Update:
I combined Start and Stop in only one button using addEventListener and removeEventListener
var i = 1;
var timer;
var tick = function(i) {
return ()=>{
console.clear();
console.log(i++);
//if(i == 0) clearInterval(timer);
}
};
function start(){
document.getElementById("start").disabled = true;
document.getElementById("stop").disabled = false;
timer = setInterval(tick(i), 500);
}
function stop(){
clearInterval(timer);
document.getElementById("stop").disabled = true;
document.getElementById("start").disabled = false;
}
(function() {
document.getElementById("start2").addEventListener("click", start2);
})();
function start2(){
timer = setInterval(tick(i), 500);
document.getElementById("start2").innerHTML = "Stop";
document.getElementById("start2").removeEventListener("click", start2);
document.getElementById("start2").addEventListener("click", stop2);
}
function stop2(){
clearInterval(timer);
document.getElementById("start2").innerHTML = "Start";
document.getElementById("start2").removeEventListener("click", stop2);
document.getElementById("start2").addEventListener("click", start2);
}
<button id="start" onclick="start()">Start</button>
<button id="stop" onclick="stop()">Stop</button>
<h2>Combine Start and Stop</h2>
<button id="start2" >Start</button>
Because setTimeout first parameter has to be a function.
Your code works because it immediately executes the tick(i) function, which returns a function and that one is used 500ms later as callback.
below code will help you
<h1><time>00:00:00</time></h1>
<button id="start">start</button>
<button id="stop">stop</button>
<button id="clear">clear</button>
</pre>
<script>
var h1 = document.getElementsByTagName('h1')[0],
start = document.getElementById('start'),
stop = document.getElementById('stop'),
clear = document.getElementById('clear'),
seconds = 0, minutes = 0, hours = 0,
t;
function add() {
seconds++;
if (seconds >= 60) {
seconds = 0;
minutes++;
if (minutes >= 60) {
minutes = 0;
hours++;
}
}
h1.textContent = (hours ? (hours > 9 ? hours : "0" + hours) : "00") + ":" + (minutes ? (minutes > 9 ? minutes : "0" + minutes) : "00") + ":" + (seconds > 9 ? seconds : "0" + seconds);
timer();
}
function timer() {
t = setTimeout(add, 1000);
}
start.onclick = function(){
timer();
start.disabled=true;
}
/* Stop button */
stop.onclick = function() {
clearTimeout(t);
start.disabled=false;
}
/* Clear button */
clear.onclick = function() {
h1.textContent = "00:00:00";
seconds = 0; minutes = 0; hours = 0;
}
</script>
I'm making a shot clock for my school's basketball team. A shot clock is a timer that counts down from 24 seconds. I have the skeleton for the timer right now, but I need to have particular key bindings. The key bindings should allow me to rest, pause, and play the timer.
var count=24;
var counter=setInterval(timer, 1000);
function timer()
{
count=count-1;
if (count <= 0)
{
clearInterval(counter);
return;
}
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML=count + " secs";
}
I'm not sure what you meant by "rest" the timer, I interpret this as "pause", so:
Space = Pause / Play.
R = Reset.
var
count=24,
counter = setInterval(timer, 1000),
running = true;
function timer() {
count -= 1;
if (count <= 0) {
clearInterval(counter);
}
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML = count + " secs";
}
window.addEventListener("keydown", function(e) {
switch(e.keyCode) {
case 32: // PLAY
running ? clearInterval(counter) : counter = setInterval(timer, 1000);
running = !running;
break;
case 82: // RESET
clearInterval(counter);
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML = 24 + " secs";
count = 24;
running = false;
}
});
<div id="timer">24 secs</div>
I am not able to comment yet, but I recommend checking out this post Binding arrow keys in JS/jQuery
The linked post explains how to bind arrow keys using js/jquery. Using http://keycode.info/ you can find out the keycodes of your desired keys and replace the current values then continue to build your code from there.
Here is my code sample: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/vLvWJM
$(document).ready(function() {
var $timer = $('#timer');
var $timerStatus = $('#timerStatus');
var timerValue = 24;
var intervalId = null;
var timerStatus = 'stopped';
if(!$timer.length) {
throw 'This timer is missing a <div> element.';
}
$(document).keydown(function(k) {
if(k.which == 80) {
if(timerStatus === 'playing') {
clearInterval(intervalId);
timerStatus = 'stopped';
updateTimerStatus();
return;
}
intervalId = setInterval(function() {
playTimer();
timerStatus = 'playing';
updateTimerStatus();
}, 1000);
} else if(k.which == 82) {
clearInterval(intervalId);
resetTimer();
updateText();
timerStatus = 'stopped';
updateTimerStatus();
}
});
function playTimer() {
if(timerValue > 0) {
timerValue--;
updateText();
}
}
function resetTimer() {
timerValue = 24;
}
function updateText() {
$timer.html(timerValue);
}
function updateTimerStatus() {
$timerStatus.html(timerStatus);
}
});
<div id="timerStatus">stopped</div>
<div id="timer">24</div>
I have a timer running using jquery setInterval and a button that toggles between play and pause. I need the timer to pause and/or continue running when the user clicks on the play/pause button. Also, for some reason, the seconds goes from "59" to "01". It's skipping "00". I'm not sure why. Thanks for your help!
HTML:
<div id="clock">0:00</div>
<div id="audioBtn">
<div class="btn play"></div>
<div class="btn pause"></div>
</div>
JQuery
var output = $('#clock');
var isPaused = false;
var min = 0;
var sec = 0;
var t = window.setInterval(function() {
if(!isPaused) {
sec++;
if (sec < 10) {
output.html(min + ":0" + sec);
} else {
output.html(min + ":" + sec);
}
if (sec === 59) {
sec = 0;
min++;
}
}
}, 1000);
if ($('.btn').hasClass('pause')) {
$('#audioBtn').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
console.log("should pause");
isPaused = true;
});
};
if ($('.btn').hasClass('play')) {
$('#audioBtn').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
console.log("should play");
isPaused = false;
});
};
change it to
if (sec == 59) {
sec = -1;
min++;
}
i keep getting error said: Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of null.
i try to change innerHTML ->innerText. still not working.
what am i missing here???
function countdown(minutes) {
var seconds = 60;
var mins = minutes
function tick() {
var counter = document.getElementById("timer");
var current_minutes = mins-1;
seconds--;
counter.innerHTML =
current_minutes.toString() + ":" + (seconds < 10 ? "0" : "") + String(seconds);
if( seconds > 0 ) {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
} else {
if(mins > 1){
// countdown(mins-1); never reach “00″ issue solved:Contributed by
Victor Streithorst
setTimeout(function () { countdown(mins - 1); }, 1000);
}
}
}
tick();
}
countdown(3);
html
<div id="timer"></div>
You're calling countdown(), which calls tick(), which calls document.getElementById("timer"), before that element has even been parsed.
Try doing it like this:
<div id="timer"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function countdown(minutes) {
var seconds = 60;
var mins = minutes
function tick() {
var counter = document.getElementById("timer");
var current_minutes = mins-1
seconds--;
counter.innerHTML = current_minutes.toString() + ":" + (seconds < 10 ? "0" : "") + String(seconds);
if( seconds > 0 ) {
setTimeout(tick, 1000);
} else {
if(mins > 1) {
// countdown(mins-1);
setTimeout(function () { countdown(mins - 1); }, 1000);
}
}
}
tick();
}
countdown(3);
</script>
In this case, order matters. You want to make sure the document has encountered that element before accessing it via the DOM.
I am trying to get this script to count up to a specified number and back down to a specified number as follows: 19200, 38400, 57600, 76800, 96000, 76800, 57600, 38400, 19200 — repeatedly. So far this is what I have but I cannot seem to make it count down in the order above, it restarts from 19200 again.
$(function() {
var seconds = 19200;
var timerId = setInterval(function() {
seconds = seconds + 19200;
$("#counter").text(seconds);
if (seconds > "76800") {
clearInterval(seconds);
seconds = seconds - "19200";
}
}, 500);
});
A little issue with the logic, the condition
if (seconds > "76800") {
would always try to keep the seconds above 76800.
Rather you would want a flag to track the direction of the count. Check out below:
UPDATED:
Working demo at
JSFiddle
$(function () {
var increment = 19200;
var seconds = increment;
var countUp = true;
var timerId = setInterval(function () {
$("#counter").text(seconds);
if (countUp) {
seconds += increment;
} else {
seconds -= increment;
}
if (countUp && seconds > increment*4) {
countUp = false;
} else if (!countUp && seconds <= increment) {
countUp = true;
}
}, 500);
});
Check the below function
$(function() {
var seconds = 19200;
action = 'add';
var timerId = setInterval(function() {
$("#counter").text(seconds);
if (seconds == 96000) {
action = 'remove';
} else if (seconds == 19200) {
action = 'add'
}
if (action == 'add')
seconds += 19200;
else if (action == 'remove')
seconds -= 19200;
}, 500);
});
I think this is a little more elegant
var increment = 19200,
seconds = increment;
var timer = setInterval(function() {
console.log(seconds);
seconds += increment;
if (seconds > 76800 || seconds < 19200) {
increment *= -1;
}
}, 500);
