Question

I created an array and inserted a setInterval in it, but tmp[0] doesn’t work

tmp = new Array();
v = new Array();
for(i=0; i<2; i++){
j = 0;
tmp[i] = setInterval("if(j<10+(i*5)){alert(i+' '+j);j++;}else{clearInterval(tmp[i])}", 1000);
}

Do Not use eval. Try this:

var tmp = new Array();
var v = new Array();
for (i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
    var j = 0;
    tmp[i] = setInterval(function () {
        if (j < 10 + (i * 5)) {
            alert(i + ' ' + j);
            j++;
        } else {
            clearInterval(tmp[i])
        }
    }, 1000);
}

This might do what you want it to do:

var tmp = new Array();
var v = new Array();
var i = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
    createTmp(i);
}

function createTmp(p){
    var j = 0;
    tmp[p] = setInterval(function () {
        if (j < 10 + (p * 5)) {
            alert(p + ' ' + j);
            j++;
        } else {
            clearInterval(tmp[p])
        }
    }, 1000);
}
console.log(tmp);
