setTimeout - Pass variable as time

Question

I have a setTimeout, and I want to be able to use a variable as the timer:

var that = this;
var time = this.spawnTime;

setTimeout( function(time){ 
    that.SpawnCounter();
}, time);

This doesn't seem to do the trick. Any ideas why?

Thanks

Answer 1

var that = this;
var time = 1000;

setTimeout( function(time){ 
    that.SpawnCounter();
}, time);

The code above should work. Maybe the problem is that this.spawnTime is not numeric or invaild.
