Timer js

[Epiales]

Hey all, not sure where I needed to post this, but I come across this js timer, and was curious how it works, or what it even does; as I don't know much about timers or js I think one of our members here has either wrote it or worked with it before, but don't remember which one, as I have a billion tidbits of code snippets running around that I've gathered lmao

Code: Select all

Timer = function( seconds, method )
{
    this.domElement = ( document != undefined ? document.createElement('span') : null );

    this.secondsStart = ( seconds != undefined ? seconds : 0 );
    this.method     = ( method == undefined ? false : true );

    this.init();

    return this;
}

Timer.prototype = {

That looks like my script. It's a timer object.

create a new time instance:

Code: Select all

var time = new Timer();

And watch the magic happen.
