function setInterval() not working properly while on second call

Question

I have a button name Assign agent button when i click on button a loader will appear for 3 second(with timeInterval function) and then after 3 second a modal will appear. The issue is when i click on assign button the loader appear and then disappear after 3 second but on second time when I click on assign button the loader appear but suddenly disappear in 1 or 2 second. Why the loader is not taking 3 second same as first click?

    <button type="button" value="edit" name="edit-btn" class="spin-modal clear-cookie"
                        onclick="spiner();"> Assign
                        Agent</button> <div class="loader-spiner-outer class-none-view">

Try this:

$(".close").click(function ()
{
  $("#myModal").hide();
});

function spiner()
{
  $(".loader-spiner-outer").addClass("class-none-view"); 
  setTimeout(function ()
  {
    $(".loader-spiner-outer").removeClass("class-none-view");
    setTimeout(function ()
    {
      $("#myModal").show();
    }, 3000);
  }, 3000);
}

.loader-spiner-outer
{
  display: none;
}
.loader-spiner-outer.class-none-view
{
  display: block;
}

And don't use setInterval(() => {}), because it is a repeating timer. Use setTimeout(() => {}), because this will only run once.

'setInterval' vs 'setTimeout'

its not working its run both loader and modal on same time that why i used setInterval to load loader first then modal — rajan chopra, Aug 22 '19 at 05:18
Appears the loader and the modal in the same time when you press the Button? — Marian, Aug 22 '19 at 05:21
I want to appear loader first after 3second the loader will be disappear and modal will appear. — rajan chopra, Aug 22 '19 at 05:24
If the loader appears for 3 seconds, the modal when will appear? You say " loader will appear for 3 second and then after 3 second a modal will appear" and now you say other. I don't understand. — Marian, Aug 22 '19 at 05:27
