Hi all im using the hover captions tutorial [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2…er\_captions.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/hover_captions.htm) does anyone know how to make it so there is a 3 second delay before it shows the hover caption.

I have tried using setInterval() but i couldn’t get it to work i hope someone can solve this.

Cheers.
