You can see setTimeout("funcName()", 2000); everywhere on the net but
it's actually quite ridiculous as it's much easier (and faster) to
just pass a function reference to it like this:
setTimeout(sendit, 2000);
also this will solve the scoping issues as well.
If you want to pass some arguments too then:
setTimeout(function(){
sendit(a,b)
}, 2000);
