Slowing a script

Hi.
Would it be possible for me to achieve this effect:
The script echos a string of text, and then a few seconds later, echos some more.
Thanks,

sleep(), or maybe even JavaScript?

Well how would I do it, using either of these?

Your choice, however Javascript can be disabled by a user.

Well if I was to use the sleep() function, wouldn't that just delay the execution of the whole script?

Have you tried it? Or read the manual link i posted?
This is why i said both,
Sleep, or javascript (
setTimeout).

Not really.
But how could this be achieved n Javascript then?
