How to detect if a page has fully rendered using jQuery? - javascript

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.

Using javascript
window.onload = function () { alert("loaded"); }

addEventListener is Not Working as Expected (Inner HTML is not Populating) [duplicate]

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
});
More info: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/DOMContentLoaded
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();
}
}
visit https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/document.readyState for more details
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!");
});

document.ready() function not executed, works in dev console

I'm trying to simulate a click in a tabbed div when the page loads.
To do this I use:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#tab_inbox").click();
});
However, this doesn't seem to work, but when I enter this in the dev console on Google chrome, it does work..
$("#tab_inbox").click();
To show the tabs, I use this code:
$("#tab_inbox").click(function() {
$("#othertab").hide();
$("#tab_inbox").show();
});
Anybody knows what's wrong?
Try this:
$(document).ready(function() {
setTimeout(function () {
$("#tab_inbox").trigger('click'); //do work here
}, 2500);
});
I read in your comment that you're using show/hide techniques and I assume you need the click for an initial display option? If so, hide (or show) your element(s) specifically in the code rather than saying click to hide/show. So
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#tab_inbox").hide();
}
Or try core JavaScript and use
window.onload = function() {
// code here
}
window.onload waits until everything is loaded on your page, while jQuery's .ready() may fire before images and other media are loaded.
you can try making your own function with pure JS:
document.getElementById('triggerElement').addEventListener('click', funtction(e) {
document.getElementById('hideElement').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('showElement').style.display = 'block';
}, false);

Check if iframe is loaded inside $(document).ready

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.

window.onload function doesn't work on Mozilla Firefox

I'm using a loading screen for a webpage and I use window.onload function.
Everything works great except in Mozilla Firefox browsers. When we first visit or refresh the page with ctrl+F5 combination, the loading screen never disappears. if we refresh the page only with F5, then it works.
I use the code below
$(window).load(function(e) {
$("#body-mask").fadeOut(1000,function(){
$(this).remove();
});
});
I have also tried the code below but nothing changed.
window.onload = function () {
$("#body-mask").fadeOut(1000,function(){
$(this).remove();
});
}
Why this is happening?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
The problem is caused by another jquery background plugin which is placed inside $(document).ready()
I moved it inside $(window).load() function, now it works perfect.
I have also moved another function to resize images on the page load. When it was inside $(document).ready() block, sometimes it was malfunctioning if loading time took too long but now it also works great.
function resizeImages(){
//Some Code
}
$(window).load(function(){
$("#body-mask").fadeOut(1000,function(){
$(this).remove();
});
$.vegas({
src: backURL , fade:0
});
resizeImages();
});
$(document).ready(function(){
//Some Other code
});
I got the same problem when mistyped the type attribute in the script tag:
<script type="text/javascript">
Try This:
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$("#body-mask").fadeOut(1000,function(){
$(this).remove();
});
});
Read for load and ready functions difference What is the difference between $(window).load and $(document).ready?
You must call function on initialization like :
window.onload = init();
in other word modify your code to:
window.onload = function () {
$("#body-mask").fadeOut(1000,function(){
$(this).remove();
});
}();// Added
Copy following code in file then open it with firefox
<script>
window.onload = function () {
alert('saeed')
}();
</script>
