how to block the value of a variable?

Hi,

I want to show pictures each 5 seconds, so i define first the present time:

tempsreel= new Date()
trh=tempsreel.getHours()
trm=tempsreel.getMinutes()
trs=tempsreel.getSeconds()
te=parseInt(trh)*3600+parseInt(trm)*60+parseInt(tr s)

Now i calculate 5 seconds further:
nte=te+5

Finally, the new picture must appear five seconds later, but i can't compare
"te" with "nte" because the difference will always be 5. What i want is to
block the value of "nte", so when the real time equals "nte", then next
picture ...

Any idea how?
Thanks
Chris

why not just use a timeout of 5 seconds.

example timeout at this URL.
