Title - a javascript snippet to control the document title
22nd of August 2011
This is a piece of Javascript code I use on Kwissle to make the document title change temporarily. Other people might find it useful too.
Code looks like this:
var Title = (function() {
var current_title = document.title
, timer;
return {
showTemporarily: function (msg, msec) {
msec = typeof(msec) !== 'undefined' ? msec : 3000;
if (msec < 100) msec *= 1000;
if (timer) {
clearTimeout(timer);
}
document.title = msg;
timer = setTimeout(function() {
document.title = current_title;
}, msec);
}
}
})();
var current_title = document.title
, timer;
return {
showTemporarily: function (msg, msec) {
msec = typeof(msec) !== 'undefined' ? msec : 3000;
if (msec < 100) msec *= 1000;
if (timer) {
clearTimeout(timer);
}
document.title = msg;
timer = setTimeout(function() {
document.title = current_title;
}, msec);
}
}
})();
