Displaying a gif before a page loads for a fixed amount of seconds

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 22.2012

Hi all,

I want to implement this on my website: [url]http://article.onlinewebtool.com/showing-a-loading-gif-image-while-a-page-loads-using-javascript-and-css/[/url]

However, I don’t want the loading gif to just display until the page loads. I want the gif to display for a fixed amount of time.

So, for example, if I want that loading gif to display for 15 seconds before the page is displayed, how do I do that?

Thanks.

@kromolSep 22.2012 — Use setTimeout and call the function that shows content and hides loader in setTimeout, not in window.onload.

Success!
