title: Jquery Delay slideDown using time();
body: <p>Sorry I could not find this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('div#loader').slideDown("fast").delay(1.5);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does not word as expected, I want it to <code>slideDown</code>, then stay in that mode for 1.5 seconds and then the load function which happens very fast and then it slides up using fast. I thought <code>delay();</code> was the correct approach.</p>
  
  <p>Full function for those who wish to see:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(document).ready(function () {
      function last_msg_funtion() {
          var ID = $(".pic_box:last").attr("id");
          $('div#loader').slideDown("fast").delay(1.5);
          $.post("/?action=get&amp;id=" + ID,
          function (data) {
              if (data!="") {
                  $(".pic_box:last").after(data);
              }
              $('div#loader').slideUp("fast");
          });
      };
  });
  </code></pre>
