jQuery - How to Delay between effects?

I'm simply trying to delay an action before it starts but I seem to be having some trouble.

This is my code:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $(".action1").bind("load", function () { $(this).fadeOut('slow'); });
    $(".action2").bind("load", function () { $(this).fadeIn('slow'); });
});

And I basically want to delay the first action from taking place just for a few seconds (onLoad).

    $(".action1").bind("load", function () { $(this).delay(2000).fadeOut('slow'); });

Wrap your function calls in setTimeout.

setTimeout( func, delay );

setTimeout(function() {
    /* your code */
}, 1000);

Try this(added delay for the first element before fadeOut call):

$(document).ready(function(){
    $(".action1").bind("load", function () { $(this).delay(2000).fadeOut('slow'); }); //Delay for 2 seconds
    $(".action2").bind("load", function () { $(this).fadeIn('slow'); });
});
