Re: How to unload a module automatically

Do you mean this:

- user loads page
- they see the module
- after 10 seconds the module just disappears, using javascript

?

If so, MetaMod can't help you. MetaMod only controls the initial inclusion of modules. You would need some clever Javascript to make modules disappear dynamically. There may be other extensions on the Joomla Extension DIrectory that may be able to help with this - otherwise, it's a JavaScript coding task.

Sorry,
Stephen

Re: How to unload a module automatically

Actually this is not unloading a module. but div. So we can use this code to unload a div inside a module. This means all content or partial of content in a module can be unload or hide by using this code.

The code is :

<head>

<script type = "text/javascript">

function hideMessage() {
document.getElementById("Your div id").style.display="none";
}

function startTimer() {
var tim = window.setTimeout("hideMessage()", 5000);  // 5000 milliseconds = 5 seconds
}

</script>
</head>



<body onload = "startTimer()">

<div id = "Your div id" style="display:block">Welcome Message</div>

</body>
