How to check if element is already loaded via AJAX? - javascript

I want to check if element is already loaded.
HTML
<button>load</button>
JS
$(document).on('click','button',function () {
$.ajax({
url: 'additional.html',
context: document.body,
}).done(function(html) {
$('body').append(html);
});
});
//My incorrect suggestion
if ($('input').is(':visible')) {
alert('I see loaded element!');
}
I could move alert to .done() block, but I am not allowed to change it.
So what event listener should I use for if statement in order to show alert when element appears?

you can do something like this:
$('body').bind("loaded", function () {
alert('I see loaded element!');
});
$(document).on('click','button',function () {
$.ajax({
url: 'additional.html',
context: document.body,
}).done(function(html) {
$('body').append(html);
$('body').trigger("loaded");
});
});
Or you can set jquery ajax to be sync, because it async as default.

when scroll down, data is loaded by ajax but click trigger is not working jquery

i face a problem of jquery click function when i scroll down in list.
in list, data is loaded by ajax request and when i scroll down then click function (trigger) is not working.
when i not scroll down, ajax data is not loaded then click function is working.
i'm confuse why this happened. i used following triggers below but not success.
on()
click()
bind()
load()
delegate()
i'm sending you code. this is code below. Please help me to sort out.
$(window).ready(function(){
$(".like").on("click", function(){
var id = $(this).attr('data');
// alert(id);
$.ajax({
url: "/stores/addLike",
type: 'GET',
data: {
id: id
},
error: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
if(data == "liked"){
alert('Sorry, you have already liked this beat.');
}else if(data == "notlogin"){
alert('Please login first to like a beat.');
window.location = "https://demo.amplifihub.com/login";
}else{
$(".likes"+id).text(data);
}
}
});
});
});
instead of $(".like").on("click", function(){ }); use $(document).on("click", ".like", function(){}); or use any static parent dom element to preserve the DOM event. I believe you are generating .like class element on scroll ajax call.

jQuery onclick event not working upon making multiple ajax requests

I am making few ajax requests in my jQuery file. On success of these jQuery requests, I wrote few on click events which are not working.
This is my code
$(document).ready(function (){
$.ajax ({
type: "POST",
url: 'myServlet',
async: false,
success: function (response) {
id = parseInt(response);
setOutputEvents();
}
});
function setOutputEvents() {
for (var queryNumber = 0; queryNumber <= id; queryNumber++) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'myOtherServlet',
data: {queryNumber: queryNumber},
success: success,
async: false
});
var success = function (response) {
//some code here
generateTable();
}
}
}
function generateTable () {
//some code here
pagination();
}
function pagination(){
$(".class").click(function(event) {
alert();
});
}
$("#me").on("click", function(){
alert("me is triggered");
});
});
I understand making multiple ajax requests is a bad programming practice but what could be the reason for on click events not getting triggered?
These are the onclick events which are not working.
function pagination(){
$(".class").click(function(event) {
alert();
});
}
$("#me").on("click", function(){
alert("me is triggered");
});
I am using Google Chrome Version 39.0.2171.95 on Windows 7.
Please do let me know if any further information is necessary.
Since you use ajax to load even the initial content it seems, .class / #me html elements likely do not exist on initial page load of the DOM. As you didn't post html, i'm guessing this is the case.
Thus, you need to use a delegated event click handler to respond to it
so, you would change
$("#me").on("click", function(){
to
$(document).on("click", "#me", function(){
and so forth to link it to the parent element that does exist, the document itself.
This would work:
$(".class").on("click", function(){
alert("me is triggered");
});
function generateTable () {
//some code here
pagination();
}
function pagination(){
$(".class").trigger("click");
}
Some notes:
Event handler must be registered before triggering click.
Triggered click selector must match the class which has the click event registered.
Functions must be defined before the usage.

Close dialog box from within AJAX loaded content

I have a jquery ui dialog that loads its content via ajax:
$('#register').click(function(e) {
var tag = $('<div></div>');
$.ajax({
url: 'signup.html',
success: function(data) {
tag.html(data).dialog({modal: true}).dialog('open');
}
});
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
I have a second script within the content that is supposed to close the dialog when the submit button is pressed
$(function() {
$('form #submit').click(function(e) {
$(this).parents('.ui-dialog').dialog('close');
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
});
When i click the submit button, i get the error:
Uncaught Error: cannot call methods on dialog prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'close'
What is it that i am missing to allow me to close the dialog from the content that has been loaded via ajax?
You have to call dialog('close') on the element where dialog('open') was called before. You're calling the function on$('.ui-dialog')instead of$('.ui-dialog ...')`.
You should define id or class for the tag element in your code:
var tag = $('<div id="signup-id"></div>');
Then find the correct element in click handler like this:
$(this).parents('.ui-dialog').children('#signup-id').dialog('close');
Note: You can find #signup-id in click handler directly like $(this).children('#signup-id') if you're sure that signup.html never contains element with signup-id id.
Define you tag dialog in html
<div id="tag_dialog" style="display:none">
</div>
then on document ready:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#tag_dialog').dialog({
modal:true,
autoOpen:false,
//you could give some other options such as width, height .....
});
$('#register').click(function(e) {
$.ajax({
url: 'signup.html',
success: function(data) {
$('#tag_dialog').html(data).dialog('open');
}
});
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
$('form #submit').click(function(e) {
$('#tag_dialog').dialog('close');
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
});

jQuery document ready after ajax request

I'm having problems with updating elements that are not ready after an ajax request.
If I run my myFunction() function on page load like so:
$(function() {
myFunction();
}
I have no problems at all. But if I then use something like
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
dataType: "script",
complete: function(xhr, status) {
myFunction();
}
});
which returns $(".myElement").replaceWith("htmlHere"). The elements are simply not ready when the complete event fires. If I set a delay in there it works fine again.
Is there any other event that gets fired other than 'complete' when the DOM is ready?
Update:
Here's the actual code:
$(function() {
$("a.remote").live("click", function(e) {
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
dataType: "script",
success: function(xhr, status) {
myFunction();
}
});
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
myFunction();
});
function myFunction() {
// Modify the dom in here
}
The missing ); was just a typo on my part.
Ive tried using success now instead of complete and it doesn't appear to make any difference.
I have set up a jsfiddle based on your code, and it seems to be working.
This is the current code:
$(function() {
$("a.remote").live("click", function(e) {
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
dataType: "script",
success: function(xhr, status) {
myFunction();
}
});
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
});
function myFunction() {
$("span").replaceWith("<p>test</p>");
}
And it replaces span tag with a paragraph. Please check it and compare with your code. If it is the same, then your problem somewhere other than this function (maybe in myFunction?).
You can use $(document).ready(function() { ... }); to wrap up anything you want fired when the DOM has loaded. Your ajax request could be placed inside the document.ready if you want this to wait until the dom has loaded.
If you want to wait until the ajax has loaded its resource then you should use ajax.success rather than complete.
Just change complete: to success: in your $.ajax() call:
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
dataType: "script",
success: function(xhr, status) {
//make your DOM changes here
myFunction();
}
});
The success function will run once the AJAX request receives a successful response. So make your DOM changes within that function, and then run myFunction().
Edit
You seem to be trying to make the DOM changes using your myFunction(). But if you don't first insert the HTML received in the AJAX response into the DOM, then there will be nothing for myFunction() to modify. If this is indeed what's happening, then you have two options:
Insert the response HTML into the DOM, then call myFunction() (and all of this should happen within the success callback function).
Pass the AJAX response to myFunction() as an argument, so that myFunction() can handle the DOM insertion and then do the necessary modification.
There is a event that triggers after every ajax call. It is called ajaxComplete.
$( document ).ajaxComplete(function() {
$( ".log" ).text( "Triggered ajaxComplete handler." );
});
So you can
function Init(){
// stuff here
}
$(document).ready(function()
Init();
});
$(document).ajaxComplete(function()
Init();
});
You are missing the closing parenthesis of the document ready wrapper function.
$(function() {
myFunction();
});
Note the }); at the end.
$(function() {
myFunction();
}
should be
$(document).ready(function() {
myFunction();
});
Or incase you want the ajax to run on load. Do
$(document).ready(function() {
$.ajax();
});

jQuery: load response Document into div

I get an asyc response from the server that contains an HTML that I would like to display:
$( document ).ready( function ()
{
var options =
{
success: showResponse,
error: errorHandler,
type: 'post'
};
// bind to the form's submit event
$('#captureForm').submit(function()
{
$(this).ajaxSubmit(options);
return false;
});
});
function showResponse(responseDoc, statusText)
{
$('#output').html( responseDoc );
}
Where #output is a div where I would like the response document to be injected. The above code does not do the trick.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

it might be a problem with options, try moving them into the function.
