Javascript automatic click button but JUST one time

Question

It's my code. This click goes on indefinitely. I would like to stop him after the first time.

<input type="button" name="submitbre" id="loadBtn" value="Load More">

<script>
var btn = document.querySelector("[name='submitbre']");
setInterval(function(){
btn.click();
},4000);
</script>

Answer 1

You need to use setTimeout instead of setInterval. setTimeout will run the function just once, while setInterval runs the function periodically.
