HTML and JavaScript how to make a text with popup message that fades a way after two seconds?
I want to write a code in html and JavaScript so when I click a text it should say coming soon but the message fades away after two seconds. Preferably if the popup message displays under the text not above it.

JaScript Thank you for the replay. But the popup does not go away after two seconds.

What you're looking for is something called a *modal* (or modal dialog). Certain libraries like jQuery, Bootstrap, and Bulma make this easier, but here's the general HTML:
<body>
Normal text here
<button onclick='showModal()'>Click for alert!</button>
<div id='my-modal' class='hide'>Hey! You clicked me!</div>
</body>
And the CSS:
.hide{
display:none;
}
And the JavaScript:
function showModal(){
const modal = document.querySelector('#my-modal');
modal.classList.remove('hide');
setTimeout(function(){
modal.classList.add('hide');
},2000);
}
Basically, the button triggers a function. In that function, we remove the "hide" class (that hides our modal). Finally, we have a setTimeout that runs after 2000 milliseconds and re-adds that "hide" class.
One important note here is that the modal is what we call *non-blocking*. In other words, if you have:
showModalFunction();
afterModalFunc();
then "afterModalFunc()" will not "wait" for the modal to disappear. There are ways to get around this (look up "callbacks") but those are another topic.
