It seems that javascript considers array as a pointer, therefore, simple assignment like:
a = b
will not copy values, variable a will just "point out" to variable b.
Consider following example:
var a = []; var b = []; a = [1, 2, 3, 4] b = a; b.splice(3);
In this case, variable a will be 1, 2, 3
Full example you can see here.
Solution is something like:
b = [].concat(a);
Taken from here.

As you can see from previous code, setTimeout(alert('I am fired immediately'), 10000); will not work.
setTimeout("alert('I will wait')", 10000); - this will work, alert under quotes, but you can not pass varibles.
And the code:
function correctAlert() {
var strTest = "I am here!";
setTimeout(function() {
correctTimeOut(strTest)
}, 20000);
}
Will work properly.
