else if (typeof fnCallback == 'function') {

// start a typewriter animation for a text in the dataText array
function StartTextAnimation(i) {

// check if dataText[i] exists
if (i < dataText[i].length) {
// text exists! start typewriter animation
typeWriter(dataText[i], 0, function(){

Hi everyone, I’m taking my first steps in programming. How can I get the loop for the Typewriter? I also wanted to assign an id to the h1 tag, because otherwise it counts all the h1s on the website
Thanks for your help
