[Solved] Why is set.timeout not working in this php while loop?


You cannot really use the setTimeout() function as you suggest…

I guess this is roughly what you are looking for:

echo <<< EOT
<script type="text/javascript"> 
    setTimeout(function() {
        window.open('https://mywebsite/$link', '_blank');
    }, 1000);
</script>
EOT;

Note: I just use the nowdoc notation since it is easier to read. Certainly it is possible to use a normal literal string for the echo command too.
