How to create sleep function

[botatun]

I'd like to put loop on hold until it resumed from frame.
I have a function that submit file update in unvisible frame:
-----------------------------------------------------------
var Used = false;

function sbmColumn(col)
{
for(var i=0; i < NumOfItm; i++)
{
var url = "EComItmSave.jsp?Cls=" + i;
waitUntillFreed();
window.frame1.location.href=url
Used = true;
}
}

function waitUntillFreed()
{
if(Used) setTimeout("waitUntillFreed()", 300);
}

function reuseFrame()
{
Used = false;
}
------------------------------------------------------
I want that waitUntillFreed() looping until Used is true
than continue to run FOR loop in sbmColumn().
The reuseFrame() will be started from frame1 on completion.
Is it possible to do?

try changing this:

if(Used) setTimeout("waitUntillFreed()", 300);

to this

while ( !Used ) {}

although, this may make your code hang
