    <p>JavaScript behaves in an asynchronous manner, meaning it <strong>does not wait</strong>.</p> <p>You have a part in your code that looks like this:</p> <pre><code>jQuery.ajax({ url: "http://"+domain+"/_ajax/"+requestURL, dataType: "html", async: true, data: data, type: type, success: function(msg){ console.log(msg); msgResponse = msg; msgRecieved = true; } }); </code></pre> <p>You should place the code to be run when the response arrives within the <code>success</code> function, like so:</p> <pre><code>success : function (msg) { handleMessage(msg); // Or any other manipulation to the received message } function handleMessage(msg) { // Work with your received message here. } </code></pre> <p><code>success</code> will be called with the <em>received</em> message, it is a callback.</p> <p>The right way to implement <code>sendMessage</code> would be the following way:</p> <pre><code>sendMessage = function( requestURL, data, type, callback ) { console.log(requestURL); console.log(data); console.log(type); //reset vars to defaults msgRecieved = false; msgResponse = null; jQuery.ajax({ url: "http://"+domain+"/_ajax/"+requestURL, dataType: "html", async: true, data: data, type: type, success: function(msg){ console.log(msg); msgResponse = msg; msgRecieved = true; // Call the callback function to notify the message // was received callback(); } }); }; </code></pre> <p>and then using it like so:</p> <pre><code>sendMessage(urlHere, dataHere, typeHere, function () { // Message has been received, msgResponse and msgReceived // have already been updated. Do what you need here }); </code></pre>

    1. COHI Thanks, I know it does not wait - im trying to force it. the reason being is so that i only have 1 ajax call on the page and other functions use that rather than having to define a new ajax call for each function - eg not repeting code.

    3. COI see. Well, there is really no need for this in JavaScript, you could keep the Event-loop busy if you like (something like `while(timePassed < 500) {}` but it's just going to consume resources instead of idling. There is no way to natively make JavaScript wait in idle state.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
