<p>I need to pause for maybe 500 miliseconds before I submit a form.  Here is what I have so far:</p>

<pre><code> $(".rowqty input").bind("keyup", function() { $("#ViewCartPage form").animate({ opacity: 1.0 }, 3000).submit() });
</code></pre>

<p>so when someone changes the quantity of the input field it submits the form, but I want it to wait for a slight amount of time incase they need a moment to type 2 or 3 numbers.  </p>

<p>As you can see I tried the animate function to try and delay things but with no luck.</p>

<p>I know I could use this: <a href="http://blog.mythin.net/projects/jquery.php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://blog.mythin.net/projects/jquery.php</a></p>

<p>I'd rather not add another JS to my site if there is a way around it.</p>

<p>EDIT: Actually the pause plugin above is not working for me either.</p>

Give this a shot:
```
```
$(".rowqty input").bind("keyup", function() { setTimeout("$('#ViewCartPage form').submit()", 500 });
```
```
