Jquery - Using Document Ready
Tags : JavaScript Intro
Using $(document).ready()
$(document).ready() allows us to wait until all the web elements are loaded before any JavaScript code is loaded. More info here
Watch the video and check out our implementation of $(document).ready()
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/example.css">
<script src="scripts/jquery-1.11.3.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/myscript.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="actions">
<button id="bark">Bark</button>
<button id="growl">Growl</button>
<button id="hide">Hide</button>
<button id="blue">Background Blue</button>
<button id="none">Remove Background</button>
</div>
<div class="activity-tracker">
<ul></ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
example.css
.turn-blue {
background-color: blue;
}
myscript.js
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button#blue").on("click", function(){
var makeBlue = "Full moon tonight!";
$(".activity-tracker ul").prepend("<li>"+ makeBlue +"</li>")
$("body").addClass("turn-blue");
})
$("#none").on("click", function(){
var makeClear = "It is daytime";
$(".activity-tracker ul").empty().prepend("<li>" + makeClear +"</li>")
$("body").removeClass("turn-blue");
})
$("button#bark").on("click", function(){
$(".activity-tracker ul").prepend("<li>Woof woof!</li>")
})
$("button#growl").on("click", function(){
$(".activity-tracker ul").prepend("<li>Was that a bear?</li>")
})
$("button#hide").on("click", function(){
$(".activity-tracker ul").prepend("<li>Climb up a tree!</li>")
})
})
Try the following:
- Load the scripts inside the head tag and use $(document).redy() to make it work (use any of examples you worked on previously).
