Wait until another thread is working in jQuery

Here, I am waiting for html button element from the popup iframe window. When a popup is open then my block of code will fire the click event on time and it's working fine, but my query is wanting to wait until not get button.

I have used the nested function calling with timeout thread, so when I call then work, but don't wait and go to the next task.

setPrint();
function setPrint() {
setTimeout(function () {
var btnprint = null;
var frame = $('#WindowFadeiFrame').get(0).contentDocument;
var btn = $('#btn', frame);
if (btn.length == 0) {
btnprint == null
console.log('not found');
}
else {
btn.click();
btnprint = btn;
console.log('found now');
}
if (btnprint == null) {
setPrint(); }
}, 100);
}

function setPrint(callback) {
var obj = setInterval(function () {
var frame = $('#WindowFadeiFrame').get(0).contentDocument;
var btn = $('#btn', frame);
if (btn.length == 0) {
console.log('not found');
}
else {
btn.click();
console.log('found now');
clearInterval(obj);
callback();
}
}, 100);
}
setPrint(callback)
function callback() {
// write all your code here which need to be executed after finding the control from iframe
alert('');
}

setPrint();
alert("hi");

i don't want to call alert('hi) until not get button and click it.
setPrint() is nested function, so it call itself until not get button.
