Flex help

Question

Hi,
This is what I want to do. I want to call this function which
will process 3 steps. The function is like this.
public function Insert():void {
myResult.deleteorder(orderid);
for (var i:int = 0; i < myData.length; i++ ) {
//pull each Person object out of the ArrayCollection
//and assign it to a variable of Person type
var newProduct:Product = myData
myService.insertsp( newProduct ) ;
}//end for loop
var uv:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("OrderReview.html");
uv.ordern = lblordern.text;
request.data=uv;
navigateToURL(request,"_self");
But what it does before processing the loop. It jumps to the
3rd step. How can I fix it so that 3rd step will run only after the
2nd step. Is there a similar kind of function like 'waitfor()' in
java in Flex2? Please help..
Thanks in advance..

Answer 1

You should probably create some sort of javascript function
and call it by using ExternalInterface.call("method","arg1");
I'm not sure if that syntax is perfect, so look up the
documentation... but flash waits it has to do with calls being
asynchronous, and synchronous...
i had the exact same problem, here is the blog post
