_confirm with a default answer after x milliseconds

Pachat

Hi,

Is there a simple way to implement a function like

_confirmDelay($message, $milliseconds, $default)

that would return what happens first of :
- user's answer to the confirm $message
- $default answer after $milliseconds (the latter supposed to be less than 150000)
?

Hi Pachat,

First of all there is no API like _confirmDelay().

You can try using this:

function _confirmDelay($milliseconds, $func){
_wait($milliseconds);
$func();
}

_confirmDelay(10000, function(){
    _alert("Delay for 10 seconds");
});

Thank your for looking at this.

From reading your answer, I do not see where is the _confirm.

What I ment is
- if the user answers to _confirm within the delay, the script continues immediatly with the user's answer
- if the user did not answer to _confirm after the delay, the script continues with the default answer

It looks like the solution you provided is forced to wait for 10 sec.
