[Javascript] Sleep / Delay function

[Reuben D Budiardja]

Hi,
Can anyone  tell me is there something like sleep or delay function in 
javascript with argument in second ? That is, I want the javascript to wait a 
few second before execute the next line of code. How can I do that?

Second, what is the best place to get references for javascript function, 
syntax, object addressing, etc? I always have difficulties of finding 
reference on the net.


Thanks.
