How to use jQuery .When .done
javascript, jquery, promise
Solution
Looking back at this now, this seems to be how it works with jQuery:
function f1() {
alert("function one");
}
$.when( f1() ).done(function() {
alert("function 1 is done running function two");
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Note: This is identical to my method I posted in the question so essentially it should have worked. Though jQuery may have changed over the last 3 years. Most likely was a problem with functions being called.
Problem
I'm trying to run one function after another function completes. ``` $.when(saveCanvas(canvas)).done(setWallPaper()); ``` Each function works fine on it's own but when I run the code above it only runs the first function. What do I need to change?
