You want to show the message first, then start your setTimeout timer with the duration for when you want your "hide" event to fire. Time is also measured in milliseconds, so 60000ms is 60 seconds(1 minute), and 180000ms is 3 minutes.
<script type="text/javascript">
function showMessage() {
document.getElementById("container").innerHTML = "hello!";
setTimeout(function() {
document.getElementById("container").innerHTML = "";
},180000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="showMessage()">
<div id="container"></div>
</body>
