Adding a Pause Between Effects Using JQuery
$.fn.pause = function(duration) { $(this).animate({ dummy: 1 }, duration); return this;};Call it like this :
$("#mainImage").pause(5000).fadeOut();Note: you don't need a callback.
This is an incredibly helpful and concise function for adding a 'pause' type function to JQuery. It means that you can wait for the designated time before running any effect - neat.
