Am stuck : Reading Files

Hi guys, I want to make this code behave quasi-sync ie by the time it reaches the 2nd comment line below, it has finished reading the file. Please help...

var content ;

var oFile //this is got from a loop. No problem here

var reader = new FileReader();
            reader .onload =function(e){
           content = e.target.result ;}
            reader .readAsBinaryString(oFile);

//make sure u have contents here
