Scripts crashing each other

well my problem is hopefully easy: 3 actions that shall happen while hovering a photo. The timer at the bottom works now, the other things crashed. A Page shall open in 5 seconds and the photo shall move out of the display before. Sounds easy, doesnt it? I hope so.
Do you guys know what I can do?
Thanks already and best regards!
<script>
var interval;
var timer = 5;
$('.HoverBalken').on({'mouseover': function () {
timer = setTimeout(function () {
$('.HoverBalken').toggleClass('HoverBalken-active');
$('.N').toggleClass('N-active');
$('.K').toggleClass('K-active');
}, );
timer = setTimeout(function () {
window.location = "FoliagePlates.html"
}, 5000);
}, 'mouseover': function () {
interval = setInterval(function() {
timer--;
$('.timer').text(timer);
if (timer === 0) clearInterval(interval);
}, 1000);
}, 'mouseout' : function () {
clearTimeout(timer);
$('.HoverBalken').removeClass('HoverBalken-active');
$('.N').removeClass('N-active');
$('.K').removeClass('K-active');
clearInterval(interval);
timer = 5;
$('.timer').text(timer);
}
});
</script>

<script>
var interval;
var timer = 5;
var timeout1,timeout2;
$('.HoverBalken')
.mouseover(function() {
//use different variable than your timer
timeout1 = setTimeout(function () {
$('.HoverBalken').toggleClass('HoverBalken-active');
$('.N').toggleClass('N-active');
$('.K').toggleClass('K-active');
}, 2000); //forgot time here
//use different variable than your timer and first timeout
timeout2 = setTimeout(function () {
window.location = "FoliagePlates.html"
}, 5000);
//stay in same scope, don't define event again
interval = setInterval(function() {
timer--;
$('.timer').text(timer);
if (timer === 0) clearInterval(interval);
}, 1000);
})
.mouseout(function() {
//clear both timers
clearTimeout(timeout1);
clearTimeout(timeout2);
$('.HoverBalken').removeClass('HoverBalken-active');
$('.N').removeClass('N-active');
$('.K').removeClass('K-active');
clearInterval(interval);
timer = 5;
$('.timer').text(timer);
});
</script>
this should fix it, notice the comments in code

clearInterval and set it again after x seconds

I want to do simple interval with with if, It is checking a variable's value and doing a function again().
again function contains clearInterval, i++ and setTimeout to call interval again after x seconds
var speed = 1000;
var wait = 0;
var i = 0;
function init() {
setInterval(function() {
if (i >= 6) i = 0;
if (i == 4) {
wait = 5000;
again(wait);
} else {
document.body.innerHTML = i;
i++;
}
}, speed);
}
function again(time) {
clearInterval(init());
i++;
setTimeout(function() {
setInterval(init(), speed);
}, time);
}
init();
I expect output like this:
1, 2, 3, Waiting x sec's , 5, 1, 2, ...
but code is doing some thing crazy, Its going faster and faster. I don't know why.
Here's a codepen with example (can crash your browser!)
Can you fix it and explain? Thanks

You are not clearing interval but use function inside clearInterval method. Method init which is used has no return statement so clearInterval gets undefined in attribute, so it is not clearing nothing.
Fixed code:
var speed = 1000;
var wait = 0;
var i = 0;
var interval=null;
function init() {
interval = setInterval(function() {
if (i >= 6) i = 0;
if (i == 4) {
wait = 5000;
again(wait);
} else {
document.body.innerHTML = i;
i++;
}
}, speed);
}
function again(time) {
clearInterval(interval);
i++;
setTimeout(function() {
init()
}, time);
}
init();
Function setInterval returns interval id and function clearInterval in attribute should get id of interval which we want to stop, so I created interval variable to save id. I am using this variable in clearInterval.

This is a small example how changing the delay of a setInterval call.
(function iife() {
var timer = null,
counter = 0;
function task() {
counter += 1;
console.log(counter);
// condition: every four reps
if (counter % 4 === 0) {
console.log("changed speed to 4 seconds");
return start(4000);
}
// condition: every seven reps
if (counter % 7 === 0) {
console.log("changed speed to 2 seconds");
return start(2000);
}
}
function start(delay) {
clearInterval(timer);
console.log("runs every " + delay + " miliseconds");
timer = setInterval(task, delay);
}
start(1000);
}());

Changer SetInterval Values After Interval

If I can try to make everyone understand what I am looking for, I am looking for the value of the interval to change to lets say "5000ms" after "1000ms" and then it would go on to the next value such as "2000ms" and repeat all over again! The current code I have is pretty much a stopwatch, It adds the number 1 to a paragraph every 1000ms. Any help is extremely appreciated!
<script>
function myFunction() {
clicks += 1;
}
setInterval(myFunction, 1000);
var clicks = 0;
function myFunction() {
clicks += 1;
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = clicks;
// connects to paragraph id
}
</script>
<p id="demo"></p>
<!--connects to getElementById-->

Don't use setInterval - this functions will perform the action in any given interval, which you set once.
Use setTimeout instead. Which performs the action only once after given interval, and then call it again and again with different interval values.

what about this
<script>
var clicks = 0;
myFunction(1000);
function myFunction( currentInterval ) {
clicks ++;
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = clicks;
if ( currentInterval == 1000 )
{
currentInterval = 5000;
}
else if ( currentInterval == 5000 )
{
currentInterval = 2000;
}
else
{
currentInterval = 1000;
}
setTimeout( function(){ myFunction( currentInterval ) }, currentInterval );
}
</script>
<p id="demo"></p>

you should try using recursive timeout instead of interval
var timeout = 1000;
var timer;
function startTimer() {
clearTimeout(timer);
timer = setTimeout(function() {
console.log('tick');
startTimer();
}, timeout);
}
startTimer();
// timeout = 2000
// timeout = 500
// clearTimeout(timer); to cancel
<script src="https://getfirebug.com/firebug-lite-debug.js"></script>

This might look a little complicated but you can try something like this:
JSFiddle.
(function() {
var interval = null;
var limit = 5;
function initInterval(callback, index) {
var msToSec = 1000;
if (interval) {
clearInterval();
}
console.log("Delay: ", index)
interval = setInterval(callback, index * msToSec);
}
function clearInterval() {
window.clearInterval(interval);
interval = null;
}
function resetInterval(callback, count) {
clearInterval();
initInterval(callback, count);
}
function main() {
var count = 1;
var notify = function() {
console.log("Hello World: ", count);
var _nextCount = ((count++) % limit) + 1;
if (count < 10) {
resetInterval(notify, _nextCount);
} else {
console.log("Stoping loop...");
clearInterval();
}
}
initInterval(notify, count);
}
main()
})()

Cant a function be implemented into while loop?

function start() {
var work = document.getElementById("work").value;
var rest = document.getElementById("rest").value;
var rounds = document.getElementById("rounds");
var timer = document.getElementById("timer");
function countdown() {
var roundsValue = rounds.value;
while (roundsValue > 0) {
var worktime = setInterval(function () {
timer.value = work + "sec";
work = work - 1;
if (work === 0) {
clearInterval(worktime);
}
}, 1000);
var resttime = setInterval(function(){
timer.value = rest + "sec";
rest = rest-1;
if(rest === 0){
clearInterval(resttime);
}
}, 1000);
roundsValue = roundsValue-1;
}
}
}
I am working on my javascript progress right now and I came here with this problem. I want to repeat the same amount of work time and rest time as rounds are but it doesnt work like this and I cant help myself. For example: 8 rounds of 10 seconds of work and then 5seconds of rest. It maybe doesnt work because function cant be implemented into a WHILE loop.

Here is a quick fix, may not be the best way to go about it but will get what to do.
http://jsfiddle.net/sahilbatla/shhyq02e/6/
function start() {
var rounds = document.getElementById("rounds");
var timer = document.getElementById("timer");
var roundsValue = parseInt(rounds.value);
(function countdown() {
var work = document.getElementById("work").value;
var rest = document.getElementById("rest").value;
if (roundsValue > 0) {
var worktime = setInterval(function () {
timer.value = work + "sec(work)";
work = work - 1;
if (work === 0) {
clearInterval(worktime);
var resttime = setInterval(function() {
timer.value = rest + "sec(rest)";
rest = rest - 1;
if (rest === 0) {
clearInterval(resttime);
--roundsValue;
countdown();
}
}, 1000);
}
}, 1000);
}
})();
}

Stop countdown on click

I want my countdown to stop on the click of a submit button, i searched in some pages,
but I didn't found anything.
Here is the code i want to stop on click
function countDown (count) {
if (count > 0) {
var d = document.getElementById("countDiv");
d.innerHTML = count;
setTimeout (function() { countDown(count-1); }, 1000);
document.getElementById('tiempo').value = count;
}
else
document.location = "timeover.php";
}
document.getElementById("palabra").focus();
countDown(5);
</script>

You have to save reference to timeout (actually return value of timeout will be number) and use it to cancel timeout.
var timeout = window.setTimeout(function () {
// do something
}, 1000);
// clear timeout
window.clearTimeout(timeout);
You probably got the idea. By the way, you should probably look at setInterval method since it would be better in this situation. Interval will "tick" as long until you cancel it.

Try something like this:
var stopped = false;
function countDown (count) {
if (count > 0) {
var d = document.getElementById("countDiv");
d.innerHTML = count;
document.getElementById('tiempo').value = count;
if (!stopped) {
setTimeout (function() { countDown(count-1); }, 1000);
}
}
else
document.location = "timeover.php";
}
document.getElementById("palabra").focus();
document.getElementById("mySubmitId").onclick = function () {
stopped = true;
};
countDown(5);
