loading - Wait for one function to complete before continuing in Javascript or jQuery -

i'm working on wordpress editor blog, , need able make sure function doget() finished before click save button javascript or jquery. doget function might take tad of time i'm in country incredible slow internet connection...

$('#xmlbutton').click(function() {      doget();      document.getelementbyid("save-post").click();    }) 

you have put...

document.getelementbyid("save-post").click(); 

in callback of doget() since it's asynchronous operation.

since don't have code made little example.

$('#xmlbutton').on('click', function(){   $.get('/post/edit', {"id":"12"}, function(result){     $('#save-post').trigger('click');   }) }); 

ps: instead of $('#save-post').trigger('click'); should $('#save-post-buttons-form').trigger('submit');.
