Question

I’ve got a function that moves a div and another function complete callback function that does some other stuff that prepares the div to move again. Therefore I can’t write:

somefunction(1,2);
somefunction(1,2);

because it won’t execute the second animation, because it is not ready yet in complete callback function. How do I execute it after the complete callback function is finished?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can pass the second function as a callback to the first

function foo (alpha, beta, callback) {
    var value = alpha + beta;
    callback(value);
}

function bar (someVar) {
    alert(someVar);
}

foo(1,2,bar);

//you can also do this
foo(1,2, function(value){alert(value);});
