thanks for hanging on Josh _ this is really driving me nuts. i wrote this code in actionscript2 4 months ago and it worked well (see it in action here (wait that all images be loaded, click on the weird image: http://www.thor.be/creation.php?id=3) then move around your mouse, and you 'll see you can control the horiz scrolling proportionally to your mouse position.
So, i managed to adapt your code sample and i don't get any errors anymore _ but the result is the same: the setIntervalled function happens only once. you can see it here: http://m2.lab-au.com/proto_metalab2_datascape.htm should you wish to check my code: http://m2.lab-au.com/_js/frontend/datascape.js thank you, alex -----Original Message----- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Nathanson Sent: jeudi 18 octobre 2007 21:45 To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: setInterval not working Alexandre, just to clarify: moveDatascape = function(el,mouseX,scrollSteps,stageWidth,frameWidth,maxX,minX) { return (function() { // rest of function follows }); // close the anonymous function } You need the parentheses before and after the anonymous function, that is what creates the closure and "seals in" your parameters, so when the function is finally executed in the setInterval call, the var values that you initially passed in through the parameters are intact. Also, I think I goofed - this: myfunc = return moveDatascape('#dsViewport',mouseX,scrollSteps,stageWidth,frameWidth,maxX,minX); Should be this instead (remove "return") myfunc = moveDatascape('#dsViewport',mouseX,scrollSteps,stageWidth,frameWidth,maxX,minX); And, make sure the myfunc declaration is in the document.ready block, just before the setInterval call. Keep hacking away at it, I think it will work! -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexandre Plennevaux" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <jquery-en@googlegroups.com> Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2007 2:02 PM Subject: [jQuery] Re: setInterval not working hi Josh, i tried your suggestion but that does not work. all the function parameters get lost somewhere in the cascade of functions... -----Original Message----- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Nathanson Sent: jeudi 18 octobre 2007 18:03 To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: setInterval not working I think you need to do something like this: myfunc = return moveDatascape('#dsViewport',mouseX,scrollSteps,stageWidth,frameWidth,maxX,minX); But, you don't want moveDatascape to actually execute at that point, so you'll need to alter your moveDatascape function a bit: moveDatascape = function(el,mouseX,scrollSteps,stageWidth,frameWidth,maxX,minX) { return (function() // rest of function follows Then you can just do: setInterval(myfunc, 20); -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: Alexandre Plennevaux To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2007 10:21 AM Subject: [jQuery] setInterval not working hi friends, can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong: i'm implementing a list displayed horizontally, that should position itself according to the user position. if the mouse is in the extreme left, div should move to the left rapidly, if it is in middle left, it should move half the speed, etc. this is my code: http://m2.lab-au.com/_js/frontend/datascape.js check this prototype : http://m2.lab-au.com/proto_metalab2_datascape.htm it appears the function responsible for updating the zone position is only triggered once, whereas it is launched via a setInterval, so i assumed it should be triggered every n millisecondds.
