Hi guys,

Have a problem with setInterval. How do you check if your interval is still running and don’t add another one? When i trace myInterval, it gives me increment numbers, and not true or false? Is that supposed to be normal? If so, how do i check that myInterval is there or not there and do my actions according to the result?

Thanks~
