How to create Timer Using JavaScript?

With JavaScript it is possible to execute some code not immediately after a function is called,  but after a specified time interval. This is called timing events. With timing events you can create timer like stopwatch, clock, quiz timer and many more.

For timing events in JavaScript, there are four methods that are used are

setTimeout(): This method of the window object schedules a function to run after a specified number of milliseconds elapses. setTimeout() returns a value that can be passed to clearTimeout() to cancel the execution of the scheduled function.

syntax: var t=setTimeout("javascript statement", milliseconds)

setInterval(): setInterval is like setTimeout() except that the specified function is invoked repeatedly at intervals of the specified number of milliseconds.

syntax: var t=setInterval("javascript statement", milliseconds)

clearTimeout() and clearInterval(): Like setTimeout() and setInterval() returns a value that can be passed to clearTimeout() or clearInterval() to cancel any future invocation of the scheduled function.

syntax: clearTimeout(setTimeout_variable)
syntax: clearInterval(setInterval_variable)

Execution of Function with Timer


Here is a function which will be executed after 5 seconds on button click. Here the first parameter of setTimeout() is a string that contains a

JavaScript statement and the second parameter indicates how many milliseconds from now you want to execute the first parameter.

<script>
function timedMsg()
{
var t=setTimeout("alert('5 seconds!')", 5000)
}
</script>

<form>
<input type="button" value="Dispaly timed alertbox!" onClick="timedMsg()">
</form>

var m=5
var q
function quizCount()
{
document.getElementById('timer').value=m+":"+s+" remaining"
s=s-1
q=setTimeout("quizCount()", 1000)
if (s<1)
{ m=m-1; s=59;}

if (m<0)
{
quizStop();
}
}
function quizStop()
{
