I would like to flash a success message on my page.

I am using the jQuery fadeOut method to fade and then remove the element. I can increase the duration to make it last longer, however this looks strange.

What I would like to happen is have the element be displayed for five seconds, then fade quickly, and finally be removed.

How can you animate this using jQuery?
