To create a timer you might try the java.util.Timer class.
Check out the following methods:
void schedule(TimerTask task, long delay, long period)
Schedules the specified task for repeated fixed-delay execution, beginning after the specified delay.
void scheduleAtFixedRate(TimerTask task, long delay, long period)
Schedules the specified task for repeated fixed-rate execution, beginning after the specified delay.
If you just want a one-time event you can still use a Timer instance and schedule a single TimerTask or just create a new Thread with anonymous Runnable class that sleeps for 3 minutes before doing something.
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
Thread.sleep(TimeUnit.MINUTES.toMillis(3));
// do stuff here
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// handle interruption
}
}
}).start();

Where can i find an online 10 second timer?
I do not think that u can find a useful 10 second online timer. I am not sure what you would like to time, but just the request to a server will porbably take more than 10 seconds. You can maybe use a client side timer, that is, one that runs a program on your own computer, just a java script timer that runs on you web browser . That may be ok, but directly to look at a server side timer, software that runs on a remote web site, is not a good solution. Hard to say what you need the timer for. There are some java script links below that may be helpful. If you give more details about the application of the timer, maybe i can help you
