jQuery delay start function

I'm using the jQuery Cycle plugin to cycle through some words, but I don't want it to start or show any of the words until a few seconds after page load, perhaps 10 seconds or so.

This is the code I have:

$(document).ready(function() {

 $('#questions').cycle({ 
    delay:  10000, 
    speed:  2000
});
});

What would be the best way to wait 10 seconds and then run the cycle function and also show the content that will be hidden by default. Thanks.

You can use the setTimeOut() function:

$(function(){
  setTimeOut(function(){
    $('#questions').cycle({ 
        delay:  10000, 
        speed:  2000
    });
  }, 5000)
});

Just use the javascript setTimeout function.

setTimeout(function(){
    $('#question').cycle({ speed: 2000 });
    // Other code to show whatever you want goes here, ie. $('some selector').show();
}, 10000);
