I have a normal asp button which when clicks I want it to show a panel for 3 secounds and then hide it. I have ceated a simple way of showing the panel, I put the panel I wish to appear in an update panel and then gave that update panel the trigger when "button1" (the buttons id) is clicked it triggers. The panel appears fine, but how do I on a timer get it to "hide" or set the visibilty property to false? I am using C# thanks Si!
