jQuery Delay
A simple jQuery plugin that allows you to add a delay between jQuery functions. This small but very useful plugin that has saved me a lot of time. I haven't done a lot of testing, but because the plugin is so small and simple (only 212 bytes!) I don't think I could have missed much!
// Wait for #link to be clicked...
$("#link").click(function(){
// Delay 1 second...
$(this).delay(1000,function(){
// Then display #hello
$("#hello").css("display","block");
// Then delay another 3 seconds...
$(this).delay(3000,function(){
// Change text color to blue
$("#hello").css("color","blue");
});
});
});
UPDATED 06/14/2009: A newer version of this plugin is available! Get it
