Reuben,

    For references, have you tried the list at
http://www.mountaindragon.com/javascript/resources.htm ?

    To delay, you'll probably want to use the setTimeout() function; for
example, you could have the first half of your code in a function that then
calls the *next* half of the code in a different function using setTimeout.
The docs will be a bit more clear on how to use it.

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.
Reuben D. Budiardja
