help with time delay onclick scriptaculous function

hello. sorry if this is a repost in anyways, i did look and couldn’t find anything.

what i am trying to do is run three sets of functions on one onclick, a script.aculo.us slide effect, a basic hide other/show layer set of functions for the content, and a time delay function that will delay the show layer function. i’ve got the first two working.

here is my onclick currently

[CODE]<a href=”#” onclick= “Effect.SlideDown(‘jG6kDlo0’); hideAll(); showLayer(‘shows’); stopTime(); return false; “>shows</a>[/CODE]

it’s calling to external javascript files. the effect.slide down is working fine, it’s the show layers function that i want to be able to delay. here is there show layers function

[CODE]function showLayer(layerName) {
if(check) {
if (what ==”none”) {
return;
}
else if (what == “dom1″) {
document.getElementById(layerName).style.visibility=”visible”;
}
else {
eval(layerRef+'[“‘+layerName+'”]’+styleSwitch+’.visibility=”visible”‘);
}
}
else {
return;
}
}
[/CODE]

if you go to [url]http://www.dorisdelay.com/index2.php[/url], you can probably visually see the effect that i am going for. sorry, i haven’t formatted the css yet.

thanks so so much
