JavaScript Wait to return from a javascript function until condition met wait return function javascript,wait return function javascript callback

This is an odd problem. I have a client object that I am building up using Crockford-esque public/private members:

var client = function() {
  var that, remote_data, other_data; 

  // add public interface
  that.doStuff = function(){...}

  // wait for remote resources to load
  remote_data = jsonRequest1();
  other_data  = jsonRequest2();

  return that;
};

The problem I'm having is that I need to load some remote JSON resources prior to returning the new 'that' object (which signals a ready client). Data is returned asynchronously (obviously), and I am setting boolean variables to indicate when each remote resource has returned.

I've thought about doing something like the following:

return whenInitialized(function() { return that; });

The whenInitialized function returns whether or not both of the boolean flags are true. I'd use this with a combination of setInterval, but I am sure this won't work.

Would appreciate your suggestions.
