I have added the code:
gameform.money_game.start_time::click - (JavaScript, client)
function TimedOut() {
app.alert ("The time has elapsed");
// cancel the timer:
app.clearInterval(timerout);
}
// Prompt for number of seconds
var secondCount = app.response("Enter number of seconds", "Number of Seconds", "", "")
// Start counter
if (secondCount >= 0)
// Timer set for thousandths of a second
var timerout = app.setInterval("TimedOut();",1000*secondCount);
It will properly ask for the amount of time and the secondCount variable is stored properly, but I never end up with an app.alert telling me I'm finished. What is wrong with that code?
Edit: I found one of my issues. It was related to the absolute path for the function as shown here:
var timerout = app.setInterval("xfa.form.gameform.money_game.start_time.TimedOut()", 1000*secondCount);
I never managed to get the setInterval to work but I was able to get setTimeOut to for for 8 seconds or less.
