1) So how can I set up a semaphore or something to synchronise the two?
2) I currently have a boolean flag (which works ok) for the above purpose, the second object repeatedly checks the flag, sleeping between the checks. Ugly, a proper semaphore or event mechanism would be nice...
As an aside, re (2) above, since Javascript doesn't have a built-in sleep, I'm using a 'homebuilt' sleep but this is horrible (and must use a lot of CPU because the delay is large and Mozilla warns me that the javascript is running slowly, do I want to interrupt it?)
