I'm using some embed codes that insert HTML to the page dynamically and since I have to modify that dynamically inserted HTML, I want a jquery function to wait until the page has loaded, I tried delay but it doesnt seem to work.
So for example, the dynamically inserted HTMl has an element div#abc
and I have this jquery:
if ( $('#abc')[0] ) {
alert("yes");
}
the alert doesn't show up.
I'd appreciate any help
Thanks
$(window).load(function () {
....
});
If you have to wait for an iframe (and don't care about the assets, just the DOM) - try this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('iframe').load(function() {
// do something
});
});
That is the purpose of jQuery's .ready() event:
$(document).ready(function() {
if ( $('#abc').length ) //If checking if the element exists, use .length
alert("yes");
});
Description: Specify a function to execute when the DOM is fully
loaded.
Using the jQuery.ready should be enough. Try this
$(document).ready(function(){
//your code here
});
or
$(function(){
});
which is a shortcut of the first.
The load() method was deprecated in jQuery version 1.8 and removed in version 3.0.
So you have to use -
$(window).on('load', function() {
// code here
});
Try this:
$(document).ready(function () {
if ( $('#abc')[0] ) {
alert("yes");
}
});
$(window).load(function () { ... }
can be enough but otherwise your embeded code (what ever that can be) might provide some callback functionality that you can make use of.
delay() should only be used to delay animations.
Generally, to handle my JQuery before or after page loads, will use:
jQuery(function($){
// use jQuery code here with $ formatting
// executes BEFORE page finishes loading
});
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
// use jQuery code here with $ formatting
// executes AFTER page finishes loading
});
Make sue you bind the event with dom load so it's there when trigger called.
This is how you do it. Hope this helps someone someday
$(window).bind("load", function() {
//enter code here
$("#dropdow-id").trigger('change');
});`

I have a DIV that is in an .html file that is loaded into my document via:
$(document).Ready( function() {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html")
//some.html contains a button id=saveButton
$("#saveButton").click( function () {
alert("Here I am!");
}
});
The event will not fire. If I cut the content of some.html and put it in the document, uhm, "physically", the event will fire.
So, I am pretty sure this issue is related to the fact that the html is injected via .load().
It's bothersome, because if you look at the page source, all the HTML is in fact there, including the button.
So, the question is, is there ANY way to make this work? I am using .load() to reduce page complexity and increase readability, and, code-folding notwithstanding, I really do not want to have to pull all this HTML into the document.
EDIT: This code was just typed in off the cuff. It's not a cut-n-past of the actual code, and it is just to demonstrate what the problem is. But, thanks for pointing it out.
EDIT2: Grrrrrrr. });
load() is asynchronus so you need to the job in the callback :
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html", function(){
//some.html contains a button id=saveButton
$("#saveButton").click( function () {
alert("Here I am!");
});
});
});
Hope it helps :)
one way is by adding to the some.html the script line which will be loaded as the div appears.
You can add this script to some.html(in a script tag):
registerButton();
and then you can define registerButton() in your current document.
other way, if I remember correctly is by using something like the function bind( )
If you want to fire event on element which was not available at the time when DOM was ready then you need to use .on event.
http://api.jquery.com/on/
$("#saveButton").on("click", function() {
alert("Here I am!");
});
jquery load() function is asynchronous. If you want to bind events to the loaded content, you should put the code into the callback function:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html", function() {
//you should put here your event handler
});
});
Your issue is that jquery load() function is asynchronous as #lucas mention. But his code has syntax errors, try this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html", function () {
$("#saveButton").click(function () {
alert("Here I am!");
});
});
});
Hope it helps now
You need to bind the event handler either after the load OR to the container of the HTML from the load
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html", function() {
$("#saveButton").on('click',function() {
alert("Here I am! Bound in callback");
});
});
});
OR use: (not needed that it be in the document ready just that the contentDiv be present)
$("#contentDiv").on('click','#saveButton',function(){
alert("Here I am! bound to container div");
});
EDIT: load on the SAVE button click (per comments) (this makes no sense though)
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#saveButton").on('click',function() {
$("#contentDiv").load("some.html", function() {
alert("Here I am! Bound in callback");
});
});
});
I dont want to use css3 transition, keeping it pure .js. let assume the following link
when you click, div(s) appear, but how can i get the same function run when the page load/open rather than triggering the function by clicking on btn.??
In this case, they were showing it to you in jQuery, and they were already wrapping it in a function that is not executed until the page is loaded. You just need to remove the "guts" of the click handler and call it directly.
Change:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
$("#div1").fadeIn();
$("#div2").fadeIn("slow");
$("#div3").fadeIn(3000);
});
});
To:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#div1").fadeIn();
$("#div2").fadeIn("slow");
$("#div3").fadeIn(3000);
});
Trigger the event on pageload or what jquery calls it, document.ready
$(document).ready(function() {
// do whatever.
});
document.ready short version
$(function () {
// do whatever.
});
I am not sure what i am doing wrong here.i have a div and i want to open up a popup if user hover over that div section and want to close on mouseout. here is my code
<div class="topCart">
some data
</div>
this is my JQuery code
$(".topCart").mouseover(function() {
$.get('${rolloverPopupUrl}?bustcache=' + new Date().getTime(),
function(result) {
$('#viewCart').html(result);
refreshMiniCart();
});
$('#viewCart').slideDown('slow');
}).mouseout(function() {
$('#viewCart').slideUp('fast');
});
above code is not working nor its giving any Ajax call to fetch fresh data, while if i use following code
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".topCart").hover( function () {
$('#viewCart').html("");
$.get('${rolloverPopupUrl}?bustcache='+new Date().getTime(), function(result){
$('#viewCart').html(result);
refreshMiniCart();
});
if($('#viewCart').is(':hidden')){
$('#viewCart').slideDown('slow'); }
},
function () {
$('#viewCart').slideUp('fast');
});
});
this piece of code is working and its fetching data so i do not see use of document.ready
with my limited knowledge of Jquery i tried but not able to see the reason of not working of code
can any one point me my error?
Try having some basic structure and cleanliness (which is next to godliness) when typing your code, and spotting errors will be much easier:
$(function() {
$(".topCart").on({
mouseenter: function() {
var elem = $('#viewCart');
elem.empty();
$.get('${rolloverPopupUrl}?bustcache=' + new Date().getTime(), function(result) {
elem.html(result);
refreshMiniCart();
});
if (!elem.is(':visible')) elem.slideDown('slow');
},
mouseleave: function() {
$('#viewCart').slideUp('fast');
}
});
});
The first code does not work becuse not all DOM elements are downloaded when you set events. And it cause that result of $(".topCart") is empty. This not fire any erros, syntax is correct, problem is jQuery works with html, that are not completed.
$(document).ready(...)
or
$(function() {
// Handler for .ready() called.
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".topCart").mouseover(function() {
...
}
});
You need to use the document.ready before events can fire, after the document all DOM elements have loaded which you can be sure of, otherwise you're looking for an event which hasnt laoded into the DOM
Without the $(document).ready(), the first has not actually been bound to $('.topCart').
The second example, using the document ready gives a moment or time at which to bind the function to the hover event.
I have something like this,
$("a[rel^='prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto({
theme: 'light_square'
});
but then I use $('.menu').click(function() { $('#content').load(page); });
How do I initialize the plugin after the page has loaded so that it works with the new html that has been loaded?
Thanks
jquery document.ready execute when the DOM is fully loaded
http://api.jquery.com/ready/
Example
$(function(){
//Whatever code you want to execute after the page is loaded
})
If you want to have the function attached to elements you load to the DOM using ajax, you can use live or on based on your jquery version
If you use a jquery version less than 1.7, use live
$('.menu').live("click",function(){
//Do whatever you want
});
If you use, jquery 1.7 or +, use, on
$('body').on("click",".menu",function(){
//do whatever you want
});
.load() takes a callback as the second parameter that fires when the page is loaded:
$('.menu').click(function() {
$('#content').load(page, function() {
$("a[rel^='prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto({
theme: 'light_square'
});
});
});
I normally set up my javascript code to have a function. But due to the fact that the application generates most of the HTML and javascript calls from a VB6 application I would like to create a jQuery function that is more like a listener. So for example if I have a td tag that has the class 'gridheader1' I would like the jQuery to wait for it to be clicked.
I'm assuming that I would use the bind... But I'm getting javascript errors with it... If you can offer suggestions on where my code is wrong that would be great.
$('.gridheader1').bind('click', function()
{
alert('hi I got clicked');
});
Again this just has to sit out there on the main .js file. It isn't attached to any functions. Please let me know.
Thanks
you want
$('.gridheader1').bind('click', function(){
alert('hi I got clicked');
});
note the dot at the start of selector - it means class
// static tags
$(function(){ // DOM ready
$('.gridheader1').click(function()
{
alert('gridheader1 clicked');
});
});
// or if the tag is loaded via ajax use 'live'...
$(function(){ // DOM Ready
$('.gridheader1').live('click', function()
{
alert('gridheader1 clicked');
});
});
// or if you already have a function defined that you want to call, you can pass in the function instead of using an anonymous function.
function alertAboutStuff(){
alert('gridheader1 clicked');
}
$(function(){
$('.gridheader1').click(alertAboutStuff);
// $('.gridheader1').live('click', alertAboutStuff); // for tags loaded via ajax
});
