You should read this tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_timing.asp :)You can delay a function using setTimeout.

function popups() {	setTimeout('alert(first)',1000);	setTimeout('alert(second)',5000);	setTimeout('alert(third)',10000);}

When called this function will display the first alert after 1 second (1000 milliseconds), the second alert after 5 seconds and the third alert after 10 seconds.

That's right or you can also use setTimeInterval

This thread is pretty old. The original poster probably will not read your reply. I think you're referring to setInterval(). The problem with setInterval() is that it keeps on executing over and over. setTimeout() is better because it only executes once.
