I have been trying to make a timer disappear when it reaches 00:00 but everytime I try something it just hides the div right away.
Here is the code I am using:
$(document).ready(function(e) {
var $worked = $("#worked");
function update() {
var myTime = $worked.html();
var ss = myTime.split(":");
var dt = new Date();
dt.setHours(0);
dt.setMinutes(ss[0]);
dt.setSeconds(ss[1]);
var dt2 = new Date(dt.valueOf() - 1000);
var temp = dt2.toTimeString().split(" ");
var ts = temp[0].split(":");
$worked.html(ts[1] + ":" + ts[2]);
setTimeout(update, 1000);
}
setTimeout(update, 1000);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="worked">00:10</div>
I have created an example for you. For this example I have changed the timer's interval to 10ms so you can see the result quicker. Also instead of setting a setTimeout
to run update
inside the function update
. You can use setInterval
. I have also added a check inside the update function that checks if the time is 00:00
. If it is true, then it invalidates the interval by calling clearInterval(timer);
and runs $worked.hide()
$(document).ready(function (e) {
var $worked = $("#worked");
var timer = setInterval(update, 10);
function update() {
var myTime = $worked.html();
var ss = myTime.split(":");
var dt = new Date();
dt.setHours(0);
dt.setMinutes(ss[0]);
dt.setSeconds(ss[1]);
var dt2 = new Date(dt.valueOf() - 1000);
var temp = dt2.toTimeString().split(" ");
var ts = temp[0].split(":");
$worked.html(ts[1]+":"+ts[2]);
$worked.html(ts[1]+":"+ts[2]);
if(ts[1] === '00' && ts[2] === '00') {
clearInterval(timer);
$worked.hide();
}
}
});

<div id="worked">01:00</div>
