Hi!

Imagine we have to sources to be requested by ajax. I want to perform some actions when all callbacks are triggered. How this can be done besides this approach:

(function($){
  var sources = ['http://source1.com', 'http://source2.com'],
  guard = 0, 
  someHandler = function() { 
    if (guard != sources.length) { return; }
    //do some actions
  };

  for (var idx in sources) {
    $.getJSON(sources[idx], function(){ guard++; someHandler(); })
  }
})(jQuery)

What I don't like here is that in this case I can't handle response failing (eg. I can't set timeout for response to come) and overall approach (I suppose there should be a way to use more power of functional programming here)

Any ideas?

Regards!
