[webkit-help] setTimeout and Safari

[Steve Conover]

Actually I am discovering what one might describe as a "normal"
problem here...how to know when the setTimeout's are done firing.  The
ideal would that I could somehow drill into the dom implementation and
ask whether any setTimeout events are waiting to fire (and stop
polling if the queue length is zero).

I'm sure that's way off in terms of how this is actually implemented.
Does such a thing exist?  Could someone please point me to the
relevant sourcecode?

Regards,
Steve
