alert is halting a javascript process but it than requires a user interaction. for internal halt i still not found any way. a workaround to that problem is using setInterval() a global counter variable and a switch control structure example: <code> var counter = 0; actionID = setInterval ( "controller()", 2000 ); function controller(){ switch(c){ case 0: action1(); break; case 2: action2(); break; default: action_default(); } counter = counter + 1; if(counter == 3) { clearInterval(actionID); } function action1(){ //.....// } function action2(){ //.....// } function action_default(){ //.....// } </code> a good explaination what the time functions can do and not you find here: http://www.elated.com/articles/javascript-timers-with-settimeout-and-setinterval/
