or integrate a callback into your helper function:
function getDataJSON(psType,psParams,*callback*)
{
var sParms="someurl"+psType+psParams
var jsonRequest = new Request.JSON(
{
url: sParms,
noCache: true,
async: false,
onSuccess: function(searchResults){
*callback(searchResults);*
},
onFailure: function(errfail) {
alert(errfail);
return "";
}
}).send();
}
*getDataJSON('x', 'y', function(obj){*
* **//do stuff with the json object*
*});*
but making standalone functions like this is not a good practice. you should
be writing classes.
