如何使可变的计时器序列运行不定式

Question

I have n parameters which have to be run in sequence for t seconds each. All the data is stored in an array which is loaded dynamically through ajax and json and exists of: function parameters p and time to sleep t

function(p1) , for 30 seconds; when it completes function(p2) for 15 seconds etc etc

Until the array is complete; then we have to start all over. The number of parameters and its time being displayed are not determined on forehand.

How can I implement this with javascript?

//edit: I tried to make one big function with function(p1) starting at t=0; function(p2) starting at t=t1; function(p3) starting at t=t1+t3

But it felt 'stupid' and overdone....

Answer 1

I suspect you array looks like

var myarray=[['p1',30],['p2',15] ...];

In this case you could

function runme(i) {
  if (i>=myarray.length) i=0;
  var p=myarray[i][0];
  var t=myarray[i][1];
  myfunction(p);
  i=i+1;
  window.setTimeout('runme('+i+');',1000*t);
}

Edit

And ofcourse

runme(0);

to start.
