Add a delay between ajax requests

[invacuo]

I've added a delay in between consecutive ajax requests in case the server needs some more time to process the files you are requesting.

I do not now how to attach code. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

$.ajaxSetup({
    timeout: 3000, 
    retryAfter:7000
});

function func( param ){
    $.ajax( 'http://www.example.com/' )
        .success( function() {
            console.log( 'Ajax request worked' );
        })
        .error(function() {
            console.log( 'Ajax request failed...' );
            setTimeout ( function(){ func( param ) }, $.ajaxSetup().retryAfter );
        });
}
