I want to check if iframe is loaded with the following code:
$(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#iframeID').ready(somefunction);
}
It seems that 'somefunction' is called before iframe is loaded (the iframe is empty - just empty html-head-body).
Any idea why this happens?
Thank you.
Try this instead.
$('#iframeID').load(function() {
callback(this);
});
While dealing with iFrames, it is good enough to use load() event instead of $(document).ready() event.
This is because you're checking if the iFrame is ready, not the document inside.
$(document.getElementById('myframe').contentWindow.document).ready(someFunction);
should do the trick.
I have tried:
$("#frameName").ready(function() {
// Write you frame on load javascript code here
} );
and it did not work for me.
this did:
$("#frameName").load( function() {
//code goes here
} );
Even though the event does not fire as quickly - it waits until images and css have loaded also.

I need to execute some JavaScript code when the page has fully loaded. This includes things like images.
I know you can check if the DOM is ready, but I don’t know if this is the same as when the page is fully loaded.
That's called load. It came waaaaay before DOM ready was around, and DOM ready was actually created for the exact reason that load waited on images.
window.addEventListener('load', function () {
alert("It's loaded!")
})
For completeness sake, you might also want to bind it to DOMContentLoaded, which is now widely supported
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event){
// your code here
});

Usually you can use window.onload, but you may notice that recent browsers don't fire window.onload when you use the back/forward history buttons.
Some people suggest weird contortions to work around this problem, but really if you just make a window.onunload handler (even one that doesn't do anything), this caching behavior will be disabled in all browsers. The MDN documents this "feature" pretty well, but for some reason there are still people using setInterval and other weird hacks.
Some versions of Opera have a bug that can be worked around by adding the following somewhere in your page:
<script>history.navigationMode = 'compatible';</script>
If you're just trying to get a javascript function called once per-view (and not necessarily after the DOM is finished loading), you can do something like this:
<img src="javascript:location.href='javascript:yourFunction();';">
For example, I use this trick to preload a very large file into the cache on a loading screen:
<img src="bigfile"
onload="this.location.href='javascript:location.href=\'javascript:doredir();\';';doredir();">
Try this it Only Run After Entire Page Has Loaded
By Javascript
window.onload = function(){
// code goes here
};
By Jquery
$(window).bind("load", function() {
// code goes here
});
Try this code
document.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (document.readyState == "complete") {
initApplication();
}
}

Javascript using the onLoad() event, will wait for the page to be loaded before executing.
<body onload="somecode();" >
If you're using the jQuery framework's document ready function the code will load as soon as the DOM is loaded and before the page contents are loaded:
$(document).ready(function() {
// jQuery code goes here
});
the window.onload event will fire when everything is loaded, including images etc.
You would want to check the DOM ready status if you wanted your js code to execute as early as possible, but you still need to access DOM elements.
You may want to use window.onload, as the docs indicate that it's not fired until both the DOM is ready and ALL of the other assets in the page (images, etc.) are loaded.
In modern browsers with modern javascript (>= 2015) you can add type="module" to your script tag, and everything inside that script will execute after whole page loads. e.g:
<script type="module">
alert("runs after") // Whole page loads before this line execute
</script>
<script>
alert("runs before")
</script>
also older browsers will understand nomodule attribute. Something like this:
<script nomodule>
alert("tuns after")
</script>
For more information you can visit javascript.info.
And here's a way to do it with PrototypeJS:
Event.observe(window, 'load', function(event) {
// Do stuff
});
The onload property of the GlobalEventHandlers mixin is an event
handler for the load event of a Window, XMLHttpRequest, element,
etc., which fires when the resource has loaded.
So basically javascript already has onload method on window which get executed which page fully loaded including images...
You can do something:
var spinner = true;
window.onload = function() {
//whatever you like to do now, for example hide the spinner in this case
spinner = false;
};

This:
window.addEventListener('load', (event) => {
console.log('page is fully loaded');
});
Is the same as this but using the onload event handler property:
window.onload = (event) => {
console.log('page is fully loaded');
};

If you need to use many onload use $(window).load instead (jQuery):
$(window).load(function() {
//code
});
2019 update: This is was the answer that worked for me. As I needed multiple ajax requests to fire and return data first to count the list items.
$(document).ajaxComplete(function(){
alert("Everything is ready now!");
});

I have a javascript function, "loadFramework()" that modifies an HTML document. Specifically, it repeatedly runs the jQuery command $("#element-id").load("document/name.html"), which injects the HTML in document/name.html directly into the element with #element-id.
Originally, I ran loadFramework() in a script in the document's header. However, since then I've realized that the function fails if the page has not loaded yet, since it relies on there being an element with #element-id.
I can't figure out how to get this function to run when it should. A simple solution seemed to be setting it to be the document.onload function:
document.onload = function() {
loadFramework();
}
But in this case it never seems to run at all.
How do I make sure a header function runs only after the document has loaded?
You should use window.onload if you are looking for a vanilla JS option
window.onload = function() {
loadFramework();
}
Jquery load takes additional argument "complete". You can run the javascript there. So the code would be:
$("#element-id").load("document/name.html", function(){
loadFramework();
});
You can also use $(document).ready(function{loadFramework()}) inside the html you are loading.
If you want to execute the loadFramework() method after "document/name.html" is loaded, I would suggest the following code.
$(function() {
$("#element-id").load("document/name.html", function(){
loadFramework();
});
});
When using $(document).ready(functioon(){alert("Loaded.")}); it pops up the alert box that says "Loaded." even before the page has fully loaded (in other words there're loading still going on like images).
Any thoughts?
$(window).on('load', function() {
//everything is loaded
});
Try out .load() instead.
$(document).load(function () {
alert('Loaded');
}
The load event is sent to an element when it and all sub-elements have been completely loaded.
http://api.jquery.com/load-event/
Using javascript
window.onload = function () { alert("loaded"); }

I try to define a live event on img tags store on a iFrame. For example, I would like obtain a simple javascript alert box when I click a image on my iFrame.
Do you know how i can define the events for the iFrame, because I would like to put a thing like $('img').live("click",function().... but only for the elements on iFrame.
Please note: img tags are dynamically added on my iFrame after page load.
Thanks for your help.

You can do it if you
make sure that the page in the iframe has its own copy of jQuery loaded [ed.: only really necessary for jQuery operations internal to the frame's page itself]
from the outer document, work into the iframe document like this:
$('#iframeId').contents().find('img') // ...
The other solutions here are largely myopic, as what you are trying to do is fairly complicated in the underlying javascript.
I'd suggest using jquery context as well - and I'd strongly suggest waiting for the iframe to totally load or else none of the previous suggestions could work anyway...
$("#frame").ready(function () { //wait for the frame to load
$('img', frames['frame'].document).bind("click",function(){
alert('I clicked this img!');
});
});
This should generally work UNLESS you update the iframe or refresh it, in which case all the event bindings will fail... and worse yet the .live events don't appear to be supported in iframes - at least not for me.
$("iframe").contents().find("img")
This will target images within the iFrame. But be aware that jquery will only traverse the iFrame if it is not a violation of the browser's (or jquery's) cross-site policy.
That means if the iframe is google.com, you can't touch the inner DOM.
jQuery.bind() won't work with external documents. At least in jQuery 1.6.2.
However you can bind to DOM events:
$("iframe").contents().find("img").onclick = function() { // do your staff here };
If you do not have full list of images at the moment, you can use events propogation:
$("iframe").contents().find("body").onclick = function() { // do your staff here };
It will work event with custom events:
$("iframe").contents().find("body").onmyevent = function() { // do your staff here };
One more thing to remember... frame content is loaded asynchronously. So bind your handlers AFTER your iframe content is loaded:
var $iframe = $("iframe");
$iframe.bind("load", null, funcion(e) {
$iframe.contents().find("body").onclick = function() { // do your staff here };
});
For more complicated cases handle your images clicks inside iframe, and trigger your custom events that you can later handle on the body level. Especially if you have totally dynamic content and want to bind to 'live' events inside iframe.
you can fire event innner like this:
parent.$('#dlg').trigger('onTitle');
then hold event like this:
$('#dlg').bind('onTitle', function(){ alert(); });
this worked for me. NB: make sure you have referenced jquery library on the iframe page as well.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#iframeid').load(function(){ //make sure that all elements finish loading
$('#iframeid').contents().find('img').live({
click: function(){
alert('clicked img');
}
});
});
});
