How to Display a Big Text Word, for a few seconds, in the Center of the Page, above other elements, with JavaScript on Button Press?

I'm working on a web project and I need a JavaScript snippet to achieve a specific functionality.

Here's what I need: Essentially, I want to display,for a few seconds, a large text word in the center of the page, above other elements, whenever a button is pressed.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

It should work across different browsers and screen sizes.

Solution

A button, a hidden <div>, a simple event listener and a simple timeout.

var btn = document.getElementById("button");
var honk = document.getElementById("honk");

btn.addEventListener("click", () => {
  btn.disabled = true;
  honk.hidden = false;
  setTimeout(() => {
    btn.disabled = false;
    honk.hidden = true;
  }, 2500);
});

body {
  text-align: justify;
}

#honk {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0%;
  width: 100%;
  font-weight: bold;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: comic sans ms, fantasy;
  font-size: 40pt;
  color: red;
  text-shadow: #FC0 0 0 3em;
}

#honk p {
  display: block;
  margin: auto;
  animation: 0.6s teeter infinite;
}

@keyframes teeter {
  0% {
    transform: rotate(-10deg);
  }
  50% {
    transform: rotate(10deg);
  }
  100% {
    transform: rotate(-10deg);
  }
}
