timer_gear
exist only in case if I press some button (until 5 sec). But there is another function it can be called any time. In this function I clear the timer and restart it. But first I have to check if the object exists otherwise I get this error:
Uncaught ReferenceError: timer_gear is not defined
Could you help me to solve this? These does not work.
if(timer_gear!=undefined)clearTimeout(timer_gear);
if(timer_gear)clearTimeout(timer_gear);
EDIT1:
first I misspelled my question: if(!timer => if(timer
EDIT2:
the full code is:
function hide_gear(){
$('#gear_div').animate({opacity: 0}, 1000);
delete timer_gear; //EDIT3: destroy object
}
...
/*gear*/
$('#gear').click(function(){
$('#gear_div').animate({
opacity: 1,
}, 1000, function() {
timer_gear = setTimeout(hide_gear();,5000);
});
});
$('#gear').mousemove(function(){
if( ? ? ? )
{
clearTimeout(timer_gear);
timer_gear = setTimeout(hide_gear();,5000);
}
});
Results:
timer_gear// Uncaught ReferenceError timer_gear is not defined
timer_gear != undefined // Uncaught ReferenceError: timer_gear is not defined
typeof timer_gear !== undefined // WORKS
typeof timer_gear != undefined // WORKS, just tired it
var timer_gear; //at the begining - WORKS, but I did not wanted a new variable if its not necessary
thank you for answers!
