I have an ajax function that gets html data every 10 seconds and then runs a function that loops through an array and performs functions that update the content on the web page.   I am trying to implement a settimeout within the loop to delay the dom inserts a little to eliminate slight page freezing in IE.   The problem I am having is that I cant seem to pass in the variables within the loop to the functions.   Can someone please assist?  Below is a code snippet:

1.     //Loop Through Items
   
   
       for ( aIdx = 0; aIdx < availableItemsLength; aIdx++ )
       {
           var thisItemName       = availableItems[aIdx];
           var data               = _serverData.find( "#" + thisItemName + "Data" ).html();
           var detailData         = _serverData.find( "#" + thisItemName + "DetailData" ).html();
   
   
           setTimeout(function(){
               updateItemData( data, thisItemName );
               updateItemDetailData( detailData, thisItemName );
           }, 10);
          
       }
