How to set timer on body onload?

Question

I want to set timer on body onload eventHandler to call function where I show hide div.

Answer 1

• For better readability, I've put the code in a separate function.
• I've added an id to the div for easier selection through javascript.
• In the onload attribute, I'm calling setInterval, which gets an anonymous function as a first parameter.
• This function will be called every time after the interval (1000 ms) elapses.
• The function will then select the element with the id theDiv, and set its css display attribute to block, or none (depending on the previous value).

Note that the first parameter for setInterval is just the function name, not a function call (so no parenthesis!):
