Synchronize on multiple of event notifications

[sfeher]

Hi All,

I need to synchronize on multiple event notifications.

After loading a number of scripts in my page ( using
document.createElement('script') / appendChild ) I get a notification
for each one after it is loaded.
What I need before going further is to wait until the last notification
was received.

Somethiing like a non-CPU intensive JavaScript wait loop..

Any ideas ?!

Sebastian

In the last script block, on the last line, have a function call that
calls a function to continue processing:

lastFile.js:

//data here

someFunctionInThePageToContinueProcessing()

Or, less reliably, have each file increment a counter and then you set
up a "checker function" that will check the counter and when it reaches
the number of files you are loading, it continues.
