Prototype delay not working in IE 7 on windows XP

[albert kao]

I like to have a sleep or delay function in javascript.
The Prototype library 1.6.1 has a delay function.
It is working well in Firefox or Chrome but not IE 7 on windows XP.
Please help (I cannot use newer version of windows).

function sleep()
{
}

sleep.delay(0.1);

I do not understand your syntax. What defines the delay method of the sleep function? It looks like sleep is an empty function.

The Prototype delay function define this syntax.
sleep is a user-defined function which can do nothing in this case.

Ah yes, one of the things I've come to intensely dislike about Prototype -- ninja changing of standard JavaScript classes; in this case Function.

Well, if it's working in all browsers but IE7, then it's likely a Prototype bug that you should bring to their attention.

Make sure you are not cached and have an old version of your code in IE.
