The "up
Aha! placing var upd; outside of the keyup function did the trick! I always
get tripped up on scope issues like this...
I'll look to your expire plugin for future use... for now, this gets me over
the hump. Thanks, Michael!

Of course, this code doesn't have any reason to be a jQuery plugin at all.
It could just be:
function expire( callback, interval ) {
var timer;
return function() {
clearTimeout( timer );
timer = setTimeout( callback, interval );
};
}
with t
How about something like (not tested):
myNamespace = {
timer:null,
keyup:function(jqObj){
clearTimeout( myNamespace.timer );
myNamespace.timer = setTimeout(function(){
myNamespace.updateField(jqObj);
}, 6000);
},
updateField:function(jqObj){
// save using jqObj.val();
})
The "delete" wouldn't work, Andy - Sean's "upd" variable goes out of scope
immediately, and you need to use clearTimeout, not just delete the variable.
Sean, you can change your code to:
var upd;
$("input").keyup(function(){
var self = this;
clearT
Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried delete upd; before, after, even inside
my upd = setTimeout... function, and nothing happened -- the behavior is
still the same.

Since you're setting the value of upd to a function containing the
setTimeout, you should be able to just
delete upd;
