Timer not working

HTML Executable
1

Using HTMLExecutable 2024
24.1.0

The command reference for StartTimer says you cannot use a name anymore and so it only accepts a value that is a blank string.

So,using the StartTimer command used as follows:
StartTimer(“”,1000);

The OnTimer event never runs:

function OnTimer(TimerName: String): Boolean;
begin
MessageDlg(“Message”,“HERE!”, mtInformation, [mbOK]);
Result := False;
end;

We’ll take a look at this issue. Thank you for the report!

Did you find anything?

Yes, that should be fixed in HTML Executable 2024.2.

Will the fix work with the TimerName parameter too? Otherwise you can only use one timer right?

It’s on the TODO list and I suppose that the main dev will make it working too.

Issue fixed in version 2024.2. Beware, the StartTimer was restored to the old state, it now requires a timer name. Several timers can now be defined too.
Thank you.
