Why does the following function wait until after the while loop is finished
to update the #timer css? It happens in IE and Firefox - I'm (still) using
jQ 1.1.2.
function wait(time){
$("#timer").css("display","block");
time = time * 1000;
var sleeping = true;
var now = new Date();
var startingMSeconds = now.getTime();
while(sleeping){
alarm = new Date();
alarmMSeconds = alarm.getTime();
if(alarmMSeconds - startingMSeconds > time){ sleeping = false; }
}
}
