I try to put an event on document loading but not works...
I'd put an alert box, but never seen it...
document.addEventListener ("load",initEventHandlers,false);
function initEventHandlers ()
{
document.getElementbyId ('croixzoom').addEventListener ('click',fermezoom,false);
alert ("Hello, i\'m a eventHAndlers")
}
function fermezoom (){
document.getElementbyId ('zoom').style.visibility = 'hidden';
document.getElementbyId ('fondzoom').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
Thanks for you help
The document does not have an onload / load event, try attaching it to 'window':
window.addEventListener ("load",initEventHandlers,false);
What about:
window.onload = initEventHandlers;
This will work for you.

As a recomendation, not a direct solution to your problem:
You might want to consider using a framework if you haven't already.
Maybe look at jQuery which should take a lot of the pain out of what you are trying to do.
Then you could wrap it up in syntax like:
$(document).ready(function() {
// put all your jQuery goodness in here.
});
You might not want the additional layer on top of Javascript though.
I hope that helps!

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 am trying to a function to trigger once the body loads. I know that you can do this from the body tag, but I would prefer to do this from JS if this is possible.
For example: document.getElementsByTagName('body').onload = someFunc();
This does not work for me, but I think it shows what I essentially want to do.
EDIT:
I have tried the answers, what seems to be the issue is that it is calling the function before the elements it uses in the body tag are loaded, even if I put the script tags inside the body.
This is what it needs to do:
var buttonElements = document.getElementsByClassName('button');
And if I do:
alert(buttonElements)
It will pop up 0, but when I create a variable in the console, it will successfully populate it with the elements.
What you've got will almost work, but you have to import your JavaScript at the end of the <body> tag, and you have to index the first result:
document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].onload = someFunc;
Like so:
window.onload = someFunc;
If however, your function accepts arguemnts, you would need anonymous function like this:
window.onload = function(){
someFunc(arg1, arg2);
}
BTW, other than fix that #Pointy mentioned for your code, you can also do:
document.body.onload = someFunc;
Dont use quotes... "someFunc"() won't work if you try to run it anyways.
window.onload = someFunc;
If you use jQuery:
$(document).ready(function () {
callMyFunction();
});
I've got my fiddle here, but I can't understand why it's not calling my function on the 'onmouseout' event.
http://jsfiddle.net/foreyez/Xf6LW/
any ideas?
Works fine, you just needed to put the function in the head (or body after the element is in the DOM) of the document.
jsFiddle example
It's because the functions you create in the JavaScript panel are not global when you have the onLoad option selected. Your JavaScript gets wrapped in a function.
If you do want them to be global you have to either do what j08961 suggested, by changing that dropdown to say no wrap (body or head) will work
The best solution would be to not set your event handlers from HTML, that's bad practice anyway, then you're not relying on global functions or mixing HTML and JS.
<div id="myDiv">
</div>
document.getElementById('myDiv').onmousemove = function() {
alert('here');
}
Side note: you should have noticed the error in the console saying that myFunc is undefined or something like it.
I think it's cause for jsfiddle, it declares all the javascript AFTER the HTML. The HTML is going to run and look for a myFunc and not find it. Then it's going to load the JS and it won't even run it.
Here you can see the changes : jsfiddle.
make myFunc as a global function;
I searched my code using firebug and got following generated code.
window.addEvent('load', function() {
//window.myFunc makes myFunc as a global function
// It can be accessed from any were inside current window.
window.myFunc = function myFunc(x)
{
alert('yo');
}
// function below is not available gloably.
function myFunct1(){
alert('yo1');
}
});
see jsfiddle
I am trying to give a button an onclick event when a certain thing on a page changes. I have tried to do it many different ways and none have worked. What am I doing wrong?
Below are what I have tried.
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = function() { alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page'); };
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = "alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page');";
function redErrorAlert()
{
alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page');
}
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = redErrorAlert;
document.getElementById(subDiv).setAttribute('onclick',redErrorAlert(), false);
document.getElementById(subDiv).setAttribute('onclick','redErrorAlert()', false);
Note: subDiv is a variable containing the id of the element.
You need to wait for the DOM tree to be created before you do queries on it.
Make sure that this all happens within a context that is created after the DOM tree has been built:
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = function() { alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page'); };
};
document.getElementById() takes a string containing the ID of the element you're trying to find. Assuming you're looking for the element with id 'subDiv', you should be calling document.getElementById('subDiv').
(It's also possible that the variable subDiv in your code is a string containing the ID, but since you didn't mention it I'm assuming that it doesn't.)
EDIT: If you were to go with virstulte's suggestion of using jQuery, you'd attach a function to the document.ready event in order to ensure that the DOM has been built by the time your code runs. Example:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#subDiv").click(function() { alert("Test!"); });
});
This sounds like jQuery territory here. Once you learn the ins and outs of jQuery, things like this are a snap to take care of, and you'll find yourself writing a lot less JavaScript.
First, get jQuery from http://jquery.com/
Then put this in your code to bind the event:
$('#idOfElementToBindClickEvent').click(function(){
alert('Error.');
});
jQuery basically provides a way to manipulate elements using CSS-like selectors.
try
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page');
or
function redAlert() {
alert('Error. There is an error on the the page. Please correct that then submit the page');
}
document.getElementById(subDiv).onclick = redAlert();
First case: you need to call the function, and you've assigned a string
Second case: you've assigned a function and you were not calling this function
I have lots of jquery functions in my script but a particular one is not working, this is my function
$('#delete').click(function() {
var id = $(this).val();
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: 'update.php',
data: 'action=delete&id=' + id ,
success: function(response) {
$('#response').fadeOut('500').empty().fadeIn('500').append(response);
$(this).parent('tr').slideUp('500').empty();
}
});
});
a similar function like this is working
<!-- WORKING FUNCTION -->
$('#UpdateAll').click(function() {
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: 'update.php',
data: 'action=updateAll',
success: function(response) {
$('#response').fadeOut('500').empty().fadeIn('500').append(response);
$('#table').slideUp('1000').load('data.php #table', function() {
$(this).hide().appendTo('#divContainer').slideDown('1000');
});
}
});
});
I checked with firebug, the console doesnt show any errors, i checked html source the values are loading correct, i checked my php file 5times it is correct can't figure out the problem. Please Help.
I struggled with the EXACT SAME PROBLEM for 6hr straight! the solution was to use jquery 'live'.
And that is it.
$('#submit').live('click',function(){
...code...
});
With the first one, I'd put a quick and nasty alert() within the click anonymous function, to ensure that it is being fired. Eliminate reasons why it may not be working. Also, try using Live HTTP headers or Firebug's console to see if the AJAX request is being sent.
If the click is not being fired, see if you have the selector correct. I often do this (quite nasty)
var testSelector = 'p:first ul li:last';
$(testSelector).css( { border: '1px solid red' } );
It won't always be visible, but if you see style="border: 1px solid red"` in the generated markup, you know your selector is on the ball.
Perhaps you have another click that is overwriting it? Try using
$('#delete').bind('click', function() {
// do it
});
I just had the same problem with a quick example I was working on. The solution was to put the click inside $(document).ready. I was trying to use my element before it was actually ready to be used.
It's basic JavaScript to wait until the DOM is ready before you try to use an element, but... for whatever reason I forgot to do that, so maybe the same happened to you.
$(document).on('click', '#selector', function(){
// do something
});
jQuery 1.7+ has depreciated .live() and now uses .on() instead :)
I don't know if this applies in your context, but if you have parts of the page that are getting loaded by AJAX then you'll need to bind the click handlers after that content is loaded, meaning a $(document).ready isn't going to work. I've run into this problem a number of times, where certain events will fire fine until parts of the page are reloaded, then all the sudden the events seem to stop firing.
Just use your .click with $(document).ready(function(){ ... }); because you are trying to apply the click event on a non-existent element.
1) just before the last }); you should add return false;
2) Are you sure that #delete exists? Also, are you sure is UNIQUE?
This is a long shot, but it's good to be aware of.

May not be an issue if you're not on Firefox 3.5.
Instead of id=delete i changed it to class=delete in html and in js ('.delete') and it is working fine now but when again tried with id it doesnt work.
Thank You all for Help, i dont have any problem whether it is id or class just the function works now.
There is few things you can do:
like Elmo Gallen and Shooz Eh suggested, put your code in $(document).ready(function(){...});
code your $('#delete').click(function(){...}); event handling AFTER your <button> tag,
use $('#submit').live('click',function(){...}); like Parikshit Tiwari suggested.
Everyone of these should work ok.
EDIT: oops, didn't see that this was asked '09 :D
I think you must use .on() function for dynamically code run in jQuery like this:
$(document).on("click","#delete",function(){ });
