Am stuck : Reading Files

[John_N_1]

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

Have you solved the general problem that prompted your question?

You'll probably want to use a promise. Makes all things asynchronous much easier.
