javascript - Is an event triggered when an HTML link element () containing base64 data as href is ready?

I have created a webpage that basically displays 2 images side by side.

It has a "download" button, which triggers a vanilla Javascript function, which creates a HTML element and concatenates the two images inside of it. It then creates a link with the base64-encoded result image as href and clicks on it:

Here is what the function I'm using looks like:

/** 
 * Create canvas, draw both images in it, create a link with the result
 * image in base64 in the "href" field, append the link to the document,
 * and click on it
 */
function saveImage() {

    // Get left image
    var imgLeft = new Image();

    imgLeft.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
    imgLeft.src = "imgleft/" + idxImageShownLeft + ".jpg";
    imgLeft.onload = function() {

        // Once the left image is ready, get right image
        var imgRight = new Image()
        imgRight.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
        imgRight.src = "imgright/" + idxImageShownRight + ".jpg";
        imgRight.onload = function() {


            // Once the right image is ready, create the canvas
            var canv = document.createElement("canvas");
            var widthLeft = parseInt(imgLeft.width);
            var widthRight = parseInt(imgRight.width);
            var width = widthLeft + widthRight;
            var height = imgLeft.height;

            canv.setAttribute("width", width);
            canv.setAttribute("height", height);
            canv.setAttribute("id", "myCanvas");

            canv.setAttribute('crossOrigin', 'anonymous');
            var ctx = canv.getContext("2d");

            // Draw both images in canvas
            ctx.drawImage(imgLeft, 0, 0);
            ctx.drawImage(imgRight, widthLeft, 0);

            // Create PNG image out of the canvas
            var img = canv.toDataURL("image/png");


            // Create link element
            var aHref = document.createElement('a');
            aHref.href = img;
            aHref.setAttribute("id", "dllink");
            aHref.download = "image.png";

            // Append link to document
            var renderDiv = document.getElementById("render");
            renderDiv.replaceChild(aHref, document.getElementById("dllink"));


            // Click on link
            aHref.click();
        }
    }
}

My problem is that this works fine on Firefox, but not on Chrome.

After a bit of investigating, I realized that by setting a breakpoint before the aHref.click(); line in Chrome, it worked fine. I think that it means that the aHref.click(); is called before the
