<H2>Callbacks, Functions, and 'this' </H2>
<P>A callback is a function that is passed as an argument to another function
and is executed after its parent function has completed. </P>
<P><SPAN class=906180222-09022007>[now, this is what i don't
understand]</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN class=906180222-09022007></SPAN>The special thing about a callback is
that functions that appear after the "parent" can execute before the callback
executes. </P>
