setTimeout与setInterval的区别

setTimeout与setInterval的区别：
1、setTimeout设置后隔指定时间后只会执行一次
2、setInterval设置后会每隔指定时间执行一次
3、setTimeout一般在方法内部使用达到循环调用的效果
4、setInterval一般在方法外部使用就可以达到循环调用效果

setTimeout例子：

  var minute = date.getMinutes();
  minute = minute<10?"0"+minute:minute;
  var second = date.getSeconds();
  second = second<10?"0"+second:second;
  //将时、分、秒组成时间
  var time = hour+":"+minute+":"+second;
  //将时间显示在文本框中
  document.getElementById("txtTime").value = time;
  //参数一：要调用的函数参数二：延迟时间返回值：Timeout对象
  timeout = window.setTimeout("displayTime()",1000);
}
function stopTime(){
  window.clearTimeout(timeout);//清除Timeout对象
}
function continueTime(){
  timeout = window.setTimeout("displayTime()",1000);
}

function stopTime(){

}
function continueTime(){
  timeout = window.setInterval("displayTime()",1000);
}
timeout = window.setInterval("displayTime()",1000);
//window.onload窗体加载事件，后面接的函数不能加左右小括号
//window.onload = displayTime();//不会调用函数，会没效果
window.onload = displayTime;//正确
