Build in a delay

Anyone have a suggestion on how to build in a one to two second delay in a form's script? Basically I have a user enter a parameter, then fireoff a Process Flow. The Process Flow only takes a second to run, but I want to make sure and give it enough time to complete before continuing on with more script. I played around with a "for" command and kept incrementing the counter, but could never get it to churn long enough. Any other ideas?
