Thanks, Scott,
You're right, I'll have a look at this - I'm still really something of a
beginner here! And you're right about the timing, too, I'd want the callback
function to only start when the animation ends, or better, when it's about
to end, so any transition is fairly seamless.
I guess I also need to make it fairly robust in case there is more than one
instance of the feedback panel on the page at any one time - 3 seconds is
enough time to invoke several...!
Thanks,
Dan.
