Hey all,

as I mentioned in the title, I've an issue getting setTimeout to work inside a plugin I am developing.

Code:

$.Plugin = function(obj,opt)
{
     init();
     
     function init() { ... };
     function heartbeat() { ... };

     setTimeout('heartbeat();', 1000);
}

Error: heartbeat is not defined

Anyone dealt with this before?

Cheers
