Suppose I modify the HTML DOM on line 1. Can I be sure that line 2 of the JavaScript will be working with the DOM modifications enacted by line 1?
This is the only explanation I can come up with some buggy behavior I’ve been having on a form. The previous line is supposed to update the DOM, but sometimes the DOM is not updates by the time it’s not on the next one. Things seem to work fine when I go slower though.
Yes, the Javascript DOM modifications will occur sequentially, unless you are waiting for an asynchronous AJAX call to return. The next instruction will not occur until the first has completed. However please show your code!
