jQuery Timed Event

Question

Is it possible, using jQuery, to fire off an event to set a div tag\'s text after n. seconds?

Thanks! George

I've been using the following jQuery plugins below for this. Delay can be used with chained functions, notNow can't.

Delay

http://plugins.jquery.com/project/delay

$('#animate-this').fadeIn().delay(500).fadeOut();

notNow

http://plugins.jquery.com/project/notNow

$.notNow(2000, function() { 
    alert('woolsworth');
});
