Make sure first ajax function finishes before second one

Question

I have a JavaScript function that makes two consecutive Ajax requests using jQuery. I want to make sure that the first request has loaded before the second function is call

Answer 1

Edit: Misread the question; my bad. If you ever want to have two AJAX requests executed concurrently but run a callback only after both have finished, this is how you do it!

Try this:

var completedCount = 0;
var callback = function()
{
    completedCount++;
    if (completedCount == 2)
    {
        // Do something.
    }
};

$.post('url-1', {}, callback);
$.post('url-2', {}, callback);
