Answer 1

You can try delay plugin or take a look to more traditional approach

Answer 2

You could try to slow the server down in sending its response, e.g.

//sleep for 5 seconds before outputting stuff
sleep(5);
echo 'Now I\'ll talk!';

Answer 3

Using settimeout() would be the best and easiest way through.

Answer 4

Try this:

setTimeout(function() {
   $("#div1").load("page1.php");
}, 5000);
