How do I debug timer issues in JavaScript?
An example of an AI chatbot conversation about debugging timer issues in JavaScript.
I'm having trouble with setTimeout not executing as expected. How can I debug this?
First, check if the function you're passing to setTimeout is defined correctly. Are you sure it's being called?
Yes, but it seems like the delay isn't working. It fires immediately instead of after the specified time.
This could happen if you're calling the function instead of passing it as a reference. Make sure to pass the function without parentheses.
Got it! What if I want to cancel a timer that I set?
You can use clearTimeout with the timer ID returned by setTimeout. Just store that ID when you set the timer.
