The answer to this is so amazingly simple you're going to hit yourself for overthinking this.

--- Code: ---function doSomething()
{
for(%a = 0; %a < 10; %a++)
{
echo("Loop Iteration #" @ %a);
}

doSomethingElse(); // Post-Loop Function Call
}
--- End code ---

Just put the function call after the loop.

Hmmm.

I did that, and it appears that you can only do a function call after the loop, because an echo statement feeds back syntax errors.

What are you talking about?

Post the actual script you're doing something terribly, terribly wrong.

Dude, there's no semicolon after the echo.
