Can I make the browser follow a link after a certain amount of time with jQuery?

I want make a hyperlink turn active and go to that page after a 开发者_开发问答certain amount of time or on pageload. Is this possible with jQuery?

Try this:

setTimeout(followLink, 10000); // 10 seconds

function followLink() {
    window.location = jQuery('#myLink').attr('href');
}

jQuery(function() {
    followLink();
});

I'll also just note that there's nothing particular to jQuery about this: you could pretty easily do the same thing with plain vanilla JS.

I like this way of doing it:

On document ready:

$(function(){
       window.location = $('#link').attr('href');
});

2 seconds after document ready:

$(function(){
    setTimeout(function(){
        window.location = $('#link').attr('href');
    },2000);
});

This jQuery script should do the job:

$('a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    var link = $(this);
    setTimeout(function(){
        window.location = link.attr('href');
    },3000);
});
