Loading external javascript, and then remove href attribute from results

I'm trying to load a widget in javascript which creates a HTML table once it has been loaded.
Example:
<td class="foo"><a class="bar" href="http://example.com">Example</a></td>
Inside the table are links where I'd like to remove the href attribute.
So the result looks like this
<td class="foo"><a class="bar">Example</a></td>
I tried the following jQuery:
function myfunction() {
$("td a").each(function(){
if($(this).hasClass("bar")){
$(this).removeAttr("href");
}
});
};
Reference: http://www.tutorialrepublic.com/faq/how-to-remove-clickable-behavior-from-a-disabled-link-using-jquery.php
I tried it also with onload="myFunction()" but that neither worked out.
Why this is not working? Any input is much appreciated!

have you try:
$(window).load(function(){
myFunction();
})

The problem, you're facing is, contents are added after the full document load. You should use .on() method to call your function or to run the script.
$(".widget").on("load", function(){
alert("It was loaded/ load your function/write your code here.");
});
Note, .widget and load are my assumptions. You should better use the correct values or provide your jsfiddle or code here to diagnose the problem if it still exists.

jquery fade out and redirect not working in IE

I have a website on which I have the following script intended to handle all links:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("body").css("display","none");
$("body").fadeIn(2000);
$("a").click(function(event){event.preventDefault();
linkLocation=this.href;
if(!linkLocation.contains("#")){$("body").fadeOut(1000,redirectPage);
}});
function redirectPage(){
window.location=linkLocation;}})
What it should do is, when a link is clicked to fade out and then to fade back in.
The issue I am facing is that in IE, links simply do not work.
Is it possible to edit my code in order for it to work?
If not, is there a way I can use a fallback code during this issue?
This issue is not present in chrome and I am using the latest IE

You should first check if your url contains the substring that you want to check with using indexOf() method. If it contains that character/substring then it'll return any 0 or positive value. Else it'll return -1 .
Try this way :
HTML :
ToogleFade
jQuery :
$(document).ready(function(){
$("body").css("display", "none");
$("body").fadeIn(2000);
$("a").on("click", function(e){
linkLocation = $(this).attr("href");
e.preventDefault();
if(linkLocation.indexOf('#') == -1){
$("body").fadeOut(3000, redirectPage);
}
});
function redirectPage()
{
window.location=linkLocation;
}
});
jsFiddle
Resources :
indexOf()

I found that the answer was to set the z-index. I have a stack of absolutely positioned divs and wanted to fade between them. The only way I could get IE8 to handle the fades nicely was to set the z-index of the element to be faded in higher than the element to be faded out.
$('#fadeoutdiv').css({zIndex:99}).fadeOut(2000);
$('#fadeindiv').css({zIndex:90}).fadeOut(2000);
and for redirect Check the Link Stackoverflow

I have gone through your code its almost correct you simply need to change something in your click function because preventDefault(); creating problem with the default functionality of <a></a> tag...
Also click on Allow block content when it ask you in IE.
Instead try this :-
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("body").css("display","none");
$("body").fadeIn(2000);
$("a").click(function() {
linkLocation=this.href;
if(!linkLocation.contains("#"))
{
$("body").fadeOut(1000,redirectPage);
}
});
function redirectPage()
{
window.location=linkLocation;
}
});
</script>
I hope this will work for you..

Automatically clicking a hyperlink on page load

I have a hyperlink in my jsp.
When we click on this, a popup overlay gets displayed and the background greys out. After closing the popup, the background becomes normal.
Now I want the hyperlink to be clicked automatically when the page loads.
Can anyone say how we can do that?
I tried the following..
$('#ViewOutages').click(); ,
$('#ViewOutages').click();
but none of it worked.. ViewOutages is the div id in which the hyperlink is present.
Can someone please help on this.

window.onload=function(){
if(document.getElementById('test')!=null||document.getElementById('test')!=""){
document.getElementById('test').click();
}
}
This actually worked.. :)

Here you go:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#ViewOutages").trigger('click');
}

use trigger()
$(function(){
$('#ViewOutages').trigger('click');
})
from
'ViewOutages' is the div id in which the hyperlink is present.
looks like your <a> is inside the div ..i assume you need to use find() or children()
$(function(){
$('#ViewOutages').find('#linkID').trigger('click');
})

Try this,
$(function(){
$('#ViewOutages').find('a').trigger('click');
// if hyperlink is in div#ViewOutages as you said in question
})

You can use $(document).ready(); function which is same as

How to make something load first before another in javascript and jquery

I have a div with text in it and a background image. When I load the page the text always appear 1st(assume i have low speed internet connection). How can i make the background image load before text? Can You please give me solution in both jquery and javascript

Add the text in the onload event handler for the image.
Note: If you want to keep using a div tag with a background image rather than an img tag, you'll have to add the text during the window.onload event (see this answer for the details).

Assuming your div looks like this:
<div id="Derp" style="CSS-for-background-image-here">Magical ponies!</div>
I would try removing the text completely and then add this kind of jquery call:
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#Derp').load(function() {
$('#Derp').text("Magical ponies!");
});
});
</script>
The $('#Derp').load(...) is the key here. See the docs for load(). It has an example of exactly what you need.

you could populate the content onload.
Start with this:
<div id="content"></div>
Then, in jquery, do this:
$(document).ready(function() {
mybg= new Image();
mybg.onload=function(){
$('#content').html('YOURTEXTHERE');
}
mybg.src = "PATH/TO/IMG";
});

your simple answer is .load you can do when your window gets loaded fully and then text appears:
$(function(){
$(window).load(function() {
$('p').fadeIn(800);
});​
});
what this is doing is fading in the p tag with text when whole window gets loaded.

Simple jQuery - Appending to body causes following code to not work

I am trying to do two things:
Append a div to the body
Make all clicks to links class editlink make a popup and not go to their href
Doing just #2 is fine:
$(document).ready(function(){
// $(body).append("<div>Hello world</div>");
$("a.editlink").click(function(event){
alert("Javascript-endabled users should see this");
event.preventDefault();
});
});
But if I uncomment the code for #1 like below,
$(document).ready(function(){
$(body).append("<div>Hello world</div>");
$("a.editlink").click(function(event){
alert("Javascript-endabled users should see this");
event.preventDefault();
});
});
the div appears as expected, but clicking editlink links no longer gives me a popup and navigates to the link's href.
What's going on?

Did you mean:
$("body")
rather than:
$(body)
?
Can I recommend that you use Firebug to get decent error reporting? You'd have found this very quickly with Firebug.

You are missing the quotes for your body tag selector:
$('body').append("<div>Hello world</div>");
