Question

Does this code create any memory leaks? Or is there anything wrong with the code?

HTML:

<div id='info'></div>

Javascript:

var count = 0;

function KeepAlive()
{
    count++;

    $('#info').html(count);
    var t=setTimeout(KeepAlive,1000);
}
KeepAlive();

Run a test here:

Answer 1

You should probably use setInterval instead:

var count = 0;

function KeepAlive() {
  $('#info').html(++count);
}

var KAinterval = setInterval(KeepAlive, 1000);

You can cancel it if you ever need to by calling clearInterval(KAinterval);.
