Hello friends,

i means if we have the following

 

<please wait X seconds>

 

then after X seconds "please wait x seconds" disappear and it shows the element we have

<p>something</b>

 

how can it be

<p id="timeLeft">Please wait 5 seconds.</p>

<script type="text/javascript">

setTimeout("toggleText();",5000);

 

function toggleText() {

  document.getElementById("timeLeft").innerHTML = "something";

}

</script>
