setTimeout inside $.each()

Question

ok, so I\'ve got this code:

$(this).find(\'article.loading\').each( function(i) {

    var el = this;
        setTimeout(function () {
        $(el).replaceWith(

It's exactly how Andy McCluggage written. I think something like this could help you.

var speed = 1000;

// init timer and stores it's identifier so it can be unset later
var timer = setInterval(replaceArticle, speed);

var articles =  $('article.loading');
var length = articles.length;

var index = 0;
function replaceArticle() {
     articles.eq(index).replaceWith($('#dumpster article:first'));

     index++;

     // remove timer after interating through all articles
     if (index >= length) {
         clearInterval(timer);
     }
}
