One of my customers has a website that takes in customers information. At the end, they want a "Please wait for a few seconds whilst we process your information" type message to appear on the screen (I was thinking of an animated gif in a div here).
Aparently people are still scared of the instant response a computer gives, and he wants to make it look like the system s struggling to interpret their requiremnets..)
Anyway
Whats the best way of generating a few seconds time delay in javacript, and then when the timer is done, switching off the div.
(Im guessing that this needs to be a function that is called in the Body OnLoad event, but Im no JS expert, so hopefully someone here can help me out.)
