How to detect idle time in JavaScript elegantly?

Question

Is it possible to detect \"idle\" time in JavaScript?
My primary use case probably would be to pre-fetch or preload content.

Idle time:

Answer 1

I have tested this code working file:

var timeout = null;
    var timee = '4000'; // default time for session time out.
    $(document).bind('click keyup mousemove', function(event) {

    if (timeout !== null) {
            clearTimeout(timeout);
        }
        timeout = setTimeout(function() {
              timeout = null;
            console.log('Document Idle since '+timee+' ms');
            alert("idle window");
        }, timee);
    });
