hy…I want to make a function that waits 5 seconds, after that to run another function that changes the content (changeContent) to the next label

this is all i managed to do…I hope it’s wright

function autorun() {  
if (button\_label = 0) {  
changeContent(1);  
} else if (button\_label = 1) {  
changeContent(2);  
} else if (button\_label = 2 ) {  
changeContent(3);  
} else if (button\_label = 3) {  
changeContent(4);  
} else if (button\_label = 4) {  
changeContent(5);  
} else if (button\_label = 5) {  
changeContent(0);  
}  
}

I need this in AS2.0…
