This is not threading. Javascript is single threaded (unless you use a worker). All you are doing is a very small piece of work on a timer. You will block execution doing this, you just don’t notice it because it is not doing anything intensive.

BTW if you want to pass parameters then something like:
setTimeout(function(){callback(parameter)}, 1);

Thanks Hamid. Using the setTimeout pattern, I have created a “Threaded” non blocking object with start/stop methods…
