Something like: var LastKeyPress; function hitTheServer() { if LastKeyPress > 2 seconds ago { hit the server and do stuff LastKeyPress = now(); } } What do you think? Maybe this is built into jQuery? Also, its something that...
I am creating an event with g_timeout_add or g_timeout_add_seconds which returns an event id; I can cancel the event by calling g_source_remove.

I want to put in a timeout in case it takes too long to find my location, send out the relevant url, and parse the xml. It worked when I used performSelector:withObject:afterDelay in the locationManager (just to test getting the xml), but when I put similar code around my parser it doesn't actually abort the parsing. I am testing this by...
I've implemented a Service in my android app that starts a timer (using the standard java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask mechanism) to do some processing in the background on a pre-defined interval. public class BackgroundProcessingService extends Service { private int interval; private Timer timer = new Timer(); public void onCr...
