That is of course a common solution to such problems, and I use it myself a lot, but I always have a nagging worry in the back of my head: Is that really a clean and safe method? I pick a delay time, e.g. 100ms, out of thin air and then test if it works ... for me, in my browsers, in my computer, today, here. But will that be so for every user everywhere? Perhaps those 100ms will not be enough for someone using an old computer with MSIE6, or on a computer with lots of malware that sucks all the resources, or for someone who is compiling the Linux kernel while browsing, or... So maybe 500ms, or 1000ms, or... How do we test? How do we make sure? There must be a better way. Or not?
