JavaScript Timer to show layer in Dreamweaver

How do I create a javascript timer to do the following:

After the "submit" button is clicked on the website, wait 5 seconds and
then show the button named "continue."

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Assuming that you are submitting data from PageA to PageB. On PageB,
add setTimeout.

In the following example it waits for 5000 milliseconds before it runs
the SomOtherActions() function.

self.setTimeout('SomeOtherActions()', 5000);

No, it waits for 5000 milliseconds or a bit more. In some
circumstances, the inaccuracy of setTimeout and setInterval can be
important.

OK, I'm really a newbie with this. I understand the setTimeout
function, but how do I show the layer named "btnCont" after 5000ms?
