How to make a element wait a few seconds before showing, using javascript?
user
const element = document.getElementById("myElement");
element.style.display = "none";

setTimeout(function() {
  element.style.display = "block";
}, 3000); // 3000 milliseconds = 3 seconds

Thanks for the information! Can you explain what this code does?
user
Yes, sure. This code does the following:

1. The first line gets the element with an id of "myElement" from the HTML document and stores it in a constant named "element".
2. The second line sets the display style property of the element to "none", effectively hiding the element from view.
3. The setTimeout function sets a timer for 3 seconds (3000 milliseconds).
4. The function passed to setTimeout sets the display style property of the element to "block", which makes the element visible again.

So, after 3 seconds, the element which was previously hidden, will be made visible again.
