Question

I want to drop a div down to a certain height to display some additional content. For that I wrote following dropbox() function:

  <script type="text/javascript">
  function sleep(milliseconds) {
        var start = new Date().getTime();
        for (var i = 0; i < 1e7; i++) {
          if ((new Date().getTime() - start) > milliseconds){
          break;
          }
        }
      }

  function dropbox(element){
    var obj = document.getElementById(element);
    if(obj) {
      var element = document.getElementById(element),
          style = window.getComputedStyle(element),
          height = style.getPropertyValue('height');
          height = height.substring(0,2);
      var i = 0;
      for (i = height; i<200; i++)
        {
        sleep(100);
        var tst = i+"px";
        //alert(tst);
        obj.style.height = tst;
        }
        //alert(i);

    } else {
    }
  }
  </script>

Now the problem I’m experiencing is, the box actually isn’t visible during the roll down process but only after the loop has completed but I want it to look like the “Check Availability”-box on http://www.thedana.com/. How do I get this accomplished?

Thank you!
