Problems have been reported with using .mobi names that start with digits.
Try renaming 2.mobi to Two.mobi

setInterval repeats the function
setTimeout does it once

[adikate]

i changed my function to setTimeout but the count down not working i.e., it stopped at 10. Hope someone there to solve what going wrong in my files…

Hi adikate,

I’ve noted that you have the same code in your second screen. In order to make your snippet work, let’s try the next:

1) Remove (make a backup first) the javascript code in your secondary screen (2.mobi)
2) Rename 2.mobi to Two.mobi
3) Change the target of phoneui.gotoPage in your code of 1.mobi to: phoneui.gotoPage(“#m1-Two”,’NONE’);
4) With these changes, your timer should work properly. You can add a toolbar or navigation widget including the title of secondary screen that will help you realize that the transition was complete successfully.
