Question

The FileReader is asynchronous, so logic execution continues on past the load event handler while it waits for the file to be read. This means that (as with any async handler) all code reliant on the async event must be placed within the event handler. Try this:

var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function() {
    code = reader.result;
    $("div").append("this should appear first: " + code + " 
");
    $("div").append(" this should appear last: " + code + " 
");
};
reader.readAsDataURL(upload);
