Animated Collapsible DIV - autoclose in x seconds

[bpm150]

1) Script Title: Animated Collapsible DIV

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...edcollapse.htm

3) Describe problem:I found this post about this topic (here) but I am not sure how to tweak my code to make this work since the example is different than what my code looks like... I am not very familiar with Java Script but I can follow direction fairly well... If some one would be so kind as to help me undestand how to adjust my code to make the div close after 5 seconds... I have also used the altered version of the script that automatically expands the div on page load. found here

Here is my Code:

<div animatedcollapse.addDiv('expand','fade=1,height=115px,speed=800,hide=0') id="expand" style="height: 115px; widows:960px; display:none;">
div content bla bla bla
<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.hide('expand')"><img src="/images/closebutton.gif" border="0" /></a>

</div>

Thanks in advance to anyone who would be willing to tell me how to get this div to automatically collapse after 5 seconds

Are you saying your code is different from the default version of the script (ie: you've modified the .js file)? If not, to auto close the default script after x seconds, you can use a function like the following:

<script>

jQuery(function($){
	setTimeout(function(){animatedcollapse.hide(['jason', 'kelly', 'michael'])}, 5000)
})

</script>

In the above, the collapsible DIVs with IDs 'jason', 'kelly', and 'michael' will auto close after 5 seconds. Change the IDs to your own.
