Question

var clickable = ApplyClickableLinkToClass($j(".rc_blueBtn"));
setTimeout(clickable, 1000);

But if I call it like this there is no script error pop up :

ApplyClickableLinkToClass($j(".rc_blueBtn"));

The method is as follows :

ApplyClickableLinkToClass = function(selectedElements) {
    // Go through each of the passed in selections and try to apply a link to them
    $.each(selectedElements, function() {
        var linkElement = $("a:first:not(.do-not-apply-clickable-link)", $(this));
        var link = linkElement.attr("href");
        if (!IsNullEmptyOrUndefined(link)) {
            $(this).click(function(firstLink) {
                var divToLink = firstLink;
                return function() {
                    $(divToLink).unbind('click');
                    if (divToLink.attr("target") != "_blank") {
                        window.location = link;
                        return false;
                    }
                };
            }(linkElement));
        }
    });
}

The error is just a js popup “An error has occured in the Script on this page”

Answer 1

Your clickable variable is set to the return value from calling the ApplyClickableLinkToClass function, which is undefined. So by passing clickable to setTimeout you’re passing undefined.

Try this:

setTimeout(function() {
   ApplyClickableLinkToClass($j(".rc_blueBtn"))
}, 1000);

// OR

var clickable = function() {
   ApplyClickableLinkToClass($j(".rc_blueBtn"))
}

setTimeout(clicable, 1000);
