Simple Javascript in the section used by popup doesn’t work

Hi,

There’s a simple redirect script being used in a Popups for Divi popup, but it doesn’t work. It works perfectly in a test page with no popup.

The script is a redirect to another page and has a counter that counts down to zero, then executes the redirect. The counter doesn’t count. It stays frozen at 9 seconds.

Code is below.

<!-- Modify according to your requirements -->

<h3>

  Redirecting to duckdev.com after <span id="countdown">10</span> seconds

</h3>

<!-- JavaScript part -->

<script type="text/javascript">

    

    // Total seconds to wait

    var seconds = 10;

    

    function countdown() {

        seconds = seconds - 1;

        if (seconds < 0) {

            // Chnage your redirection link here

            window.location = "https://duckdev.com";

        } else {

            // Update remaining seconds

            document.getElementById("countdown").innerHTML = seconds;

            // Count down using javascript

            window.setTimeout("countdown()", 1000);

        }

    }

    

    // Run countdown function

    countdown();

    

</script>

To test the problem, got to https://new.kenlonyai.com/home-2/ and select the slide that is 3rd from last and tap a “Listen” button.

Any idea why this is? Does a hidden section disable JS?

Thank you!
