**Situation:**

I create small information divs in the corner of the page. Those are generated by messages I set. The information are placed above each other. The divs have a `class = "informatiemelding"`.

**To accomplish:**

Is there a way to add a fade timer for each div that has the class name "informatiemelding", so that no matter how many information divs are on screen they will all disappear a number of seconds. I have jQuery. I tried:

```
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(".informatiemelding").setTimeout(function () {
   $(this).fadeOut('slow');
});
</script>

```

But that just gave me a error that "Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'setTimeout'". So I'm grabbing the divs in the wrong way I suppose.

Since I'm a utter noob with jQuery can somebody explain me what to do? Javascript isn't something that I understand. Getting better at it but I'm more in to PHP :P
