I am trying to get a setTimeout on my Preloader so it shows for more than just a split second

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong in my code below? The timeout isn't working - my page is just showing in a split second. Thanks in advance

<body onload=myFunction()>
  <div id="loading"></div>
</body>
var preloader = document.getElementById("loading");

window.addEventListener('load', function() {
  preloader.style.display = 'none';
})

function myFunction() {
  setTimeout(function() {
    preloader.style.display = 'none';
  }, 5000)
};

If you remove the window.addEventListener('load', ...);, your content will show for 5 seconds.
