Question

I know this can’t be that difficult, but I swear I can’t find a straight forward answer to this. I have the following javascript/jquery function that starts a timer:

function startTimer() { (function ($) {
    //timer for the box
    window.timer = window.setInterval(function() {
       $(".region-brand-window").timer();
    }, 10000);

    jQuery.fn.timer = function() {
       changeBrandOnTimer();
    }
})(jQuery); }   

How do I stop this thing? And I don’t mean pause. I mean turn it off from another function.

Answer 1

clearInterval(window.timer);

Should do it.
