Hi gang: I've looked, but can not find a temporary Alert. What I mean is: "Hi, this is a temporary Alert box and I will automatically close in 5 seconds." An Alert that will notify the user of something, but will NOT require the user to respond to go away. But instead, will close on its own after a set time. It sounds simple enough, but I couldn't find nor generate one. Can this be done? Thanks in advance for any references or code.
