How to load JS after being on the page for a certain amount of time?

Discussion in 'JavaScript' started by bob23, Dec 26, 2009.

    I want to have a piece of JavaScript execute after you have been on the page for a certain amount of time, for example, three minutes. I feel like this could be a simple question but I only know some basic JS.

    Can anyone help?
