settimeout – Message that appears for a second and then dissapears Javascript

Dumb question. I am trying to get a message to appear and dissapear after a couple of seconds. I just thought I would have a timeout function and at the end I would just append an empty string.

setTimeout(function() {
    $(\'#resultDivSE\').append(\'<b><p style=\"font:color:rgb(128,0,128)\">\' + data + \'</p></b>\');
}, 1000)
$(\'#resultDivSE\').append(\'\');

That doesn\’t appear to be working. Am I missing something here… Also, How would you set the color of the text?
