So, if I put foo directly in it logs that it works, then logs it didn't find it, then stops.
Does this mean that is runs a final time after it works?
can you post the code that you're talking about? with your added logging?
I was talking about the first version. I put foo directly in and took the click code out:

Click Me! <script>const waitForEl = (selector, callback, attempts = 20) => {
if ($(selector).length) {
callback();
} else {
if (attempts > 0) {
attempts--;
setTimeout(function () {
waitForEl(selector, callback, attempts);
}, 1000);
}
}
console.log(`Unable to find selector: ${selector}`);
};
waitForEl(".foo", () => {
console.log("It worked");
});

If you don't mind, could you try the second version? That first one was a copy-pasta off the internet
The second version is giving me a "Uncaught SyntaxError: await is only valid in async function" error in the console...
