jQuery: append() object, remove() it with delay()

Question

what\'s wrong with that?

$(\'body\').append(\"
Upload successful!
\");
$(\'.message\').delay(2000).remove();
<         


        

Answer 1

And just for kicks, you could do the following, using delay:

$('body').append("
Upload successful!
");
$('.message').show('fast').delay(2000).hide('fast')
$('.message').remove();
