How do I make for-loop in event run only once

im using ajax to get data from a site, then i iterate this data into an array with a for loop.

as a sub event to the loop i call a function that populates a listbox from the data in array.

this works, but the function runs all the time.populating the listbox with thousands of duplicates.

how do i ensure the function is only called when my for loop is finished?

easiest ways would be using a triggered event that is only called once..

Seeing as you use Ajax, using the Ajax on complete event sounds right..

my 'for' loop is a subevent to my ajax 'oncompleted' event.

my 'for' loop is a subevent to my ajax 'oncompleted' event.

Could you share your events?

If The Ajax request is not done more than once, the "on completed" should only run once and as such all the attached subevents..

i found the error the subevent wasnt 'attached' properly in the event viewer

causing the sub-event to stand freely and run 60 times a second.
