use clearTimeout and setTimeout w/ callbacks.
e.g. from my tablefilter code:
// bind text entry
$("input", $trInput).each( function(){
$(this).keyup( function(){
var input = this;
var timerCallback = function(){
filter( input, cache, $table[0] );
};
clearTimeout( timer );
timer = setTimeout( timerCallback, filterConfig.timerWait );
return false;
});
});
