jQuery Ajax: how to wait until *async* requests success completes before continuing?

Question

I\'m having a problem making ajax fast and functional. Here\'s the pseudo/prototype code:

function blah1(arg1){//arg1 is an array, roughly 10 elemen

You could make the Ajax call synchronous which you seem to know about, personally I would re factor my code so the success method of the ajax call, then triggers a call off to another function.

$.ajax({
        //blah options
        async:   true,
        success: function(data){
            arr[i] = data.someInt;
            myCall(arr[i]);
        }//end success
    });//end ajax
