[SOLVED] Executing a script (line) after another script (line) has run?

[Edward]

 

Hi,

 

I've recently discovered jQuery which has helped me a lot, as I don't have a great knowledge f javascript. I know what I want two things to happen when a certain link is clicked. I can make both things happen, but I want one to happen after the other (ideally I want to make it happen AFTER, but if not specifiable, then with a 500 milliseconds delay so it will be after). Is this possible? Here is my script at the moment which makes them both happen at the same time. (jQuery is installed on my server). Thank you in advance.

 

$("#preview_20080408_off_link").click(function() {
$("#preview_20080408_image").animate({opacity: "0"}, 500);
$("#preview_20080408_on_container").show(); // This should happen AFTER the line above is complete
return false;
});

Just use the SetTimeOut function
