Question

I have this javascript code:

 if (direction !== "leftnav") { 
// DO THINGS
};
setTimeout(function () {
//DO OTHER THINGS AFTER THE FIRST THING
}, 1000);

Is it possible to execute the 2e function after the first instead of having to use a timeout event?

thanks for your help!

Answer 1

Yes it’s possible. Here’s an example using the only code you’ve provided:

if (direction !== "leftnav") {  
    // DO THINGS...

    // THEN
    doOtherThings();

    // THEN
    doMoreThings();
}; 

var doOtherThings = function(){
    //DOING OTHER THINGS
}
var doMoreThings = function(){
    //DO EVEN MORE THINGS
}
