Question

See the code below…it changes the image after the page load + 8 sec and then keep on changing every 1 second.

setInterval(function(){
    setTimeout(function(){
         $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/wtrhwt.jpg');

         setTimeout(function(){
             $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/t8yejty.jpg');

             setTimeout(function(){
                 $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/t2tgw8.jpg');

                 setTimeout(function(){
                     $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/45234.jpg');

                     setTimeout(function(){
                         $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/14134.jpg');

                         setTimeout(function(){
                             $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/124t234grq.jpg');

                             setTimeout(function(){
                                 $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/frbvqw34.jpg');

                                 setTimeout(function(){
                                     $('#person1').attr('src', 'lastwavewinnerimages/14tqwrbfws.jpg');
                                }, 1000);
                            }, 1000);
                        }, 1000);
                    }, 1000);
                }, 1000);
            }, 1000);
        }, 1000);
    }, 1000);
}, 8000);

This loop execute after 8 sec. I want it to start it from the very first second when the page load. How to do it.

Answer 1

setInterval waits for the 8000 to pass before the function is first called, also you might wanna refactor the code like so:

$(function(){
    var images = ['lastwavewinnerimages/wtrhwt.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/t8yejty.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/t2tgw8.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/45234.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/14134.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/124t234grq.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/frbvqw34.jpg',
                'lastwavewinnerimages/14tqwrbfws.jpg'];
    var i = 0;

    function k() {
        $('#person1').attr('src', images[i % images.length]);
        i++;
    }

    setInterval( k, 1000 );
    k();
});
