the below is a snipit of code that will pause the script for 5 seconds. Call it like any other function in javascipt.

// pause delay for 5 seconds
function pause() {
var now1= now2= diffrence = ' ';
now1 = new Date();
now2 = new Date();
while (diffrence < 5000) {
now2 = new Date();
diffrence = Date.parse(now2) - Date.parse(now1);
} //end while 5 second delay
}
