And I just realized I should make it possible to stop the repeating
function later on.
Code:
jQuery.fn.every = function(interval,fn) {
return this.each(function() {
var self = this;
this.$every = window.setInterval(function() { fn.call(self)
},interval);
});
};
Example:
// Display the current time updated every 500 ms
$("p.display").every(500,function() {
$(this).html(new Date());
});
//... some point later in the code execution
$("p.display").each(function() {
window.clearInterval(this.$every);
this.$every = null;
});
