SetTimeout random interval in javascript

| October 16, 2014 | Free Stuff

Just few days back i got a request for my client to making a script that Increment Number with random interval. Then i thought to make a small plugin that generates random interval. How it works, is start number increments with a default value (1000) and set a cookie to user’s browser and every time this script update the cookies value so that when the user refresh there browser he/she get the same last incremented value. You can control the setTimeout random interval to change the value in the following line var rand = Math.round(Math.random() * (2000 - 200)) + 200;
