domready

Is there something like jquerys ready() in GWT. I add an iframe and will check when the DOM is ready. document.ready() is similar to the onModuleLoad() method in your GWT EntryPoint. They both execute, when the document is ready. You can create a deferred command to execute when the browser event loop returns. boolean ready=false; public void onModuleLoad() { Scheduler.get().scheduleDeferred(new ScheduledCommand() { @Override public void execute() { ready=true; Window.alert(ready+""); } }); for (int i=0;i<9999;i++){ RootPanel.get().add(new Label(ready+"")); } } This example places 9999 labels

I am currently building a corporate website for a customer that uses custom fonts extensively. On jQuerys DOM-ready I am doing placement calculations to figure out where some pop-up menus with dynamic width and height should be placed based on their dynamic contents. These calculations fail, since DOM-ready is fired before font-face is applied, and thus widths and heights are incorrect. Right now (for the prototype) i am doing the calculations 500ms after DOM-ready to alleviate this problem, but this can't go into production for obvious reasons. The problem has been observed in latest Firefox

A Google Closure library team member asserts that waiting for DOMContentReady event is a bad practice. The short story is that we don't want to wait for DOMContentReady (or worse the load event) since it leads to bad user experience. The UI is not responsive until all the DOM has been loaded from the network. So the preferred way is to use inline scripts as soon as possible. Since they still don't provide more details on this, so I wonder how they deal with Operation Aborted dialog in IE. This dialog is the only critical reason I know to wait for DOMContentReady (or load) event. Do you know

This is generally how I manage progressive enhancement whilst keep the experience clean, but how safe is it? is there potential for a race condition and this not working? Imagine the simple abstract scenario, you want to display something differently if you have javascript support.. this is generally what I will end up doing: <div id="test">original</div> <script type="text/javascript"> var t = document.getElementById('test'); t.innerHTML = 'changed'; </script> Many may claim you should use a framework and wait for a domready event, and do changes there.. however there is a significant delay

The question is so like a zillion others here and on the web - How to check if DOM has loaded in Javascript? But here's the catch: Without using a framework like jQuery etc; Without knowing if your script has been loaded via a statically placed <script> tag or via some other Javascript much later after the DOM has already loaded. Can this be done more or less reliably and with cross-browser compatibility? Added: Let me clarify: I'm writing a standalone .JS file which can be included in arbitrary webpages. I want to execute code AFTER the DOM has been loaded. But I don't know HOW my script will

in jquery $(document).ready(function) or $(function) , how could I do the same thing without jquery, and I need browser compatiable, and allow to attach more than one function. Note: dom ready!= window onload This is the way jQuery wraps the functions you're looking for - the snippet does not need jQuery, and is cross-browser compatible. I've replaced all calls to jQuery.ready() with yourcallback - which you need to define. What goes on in here: first, the function DOMContentLoaded is defined, which will be used when the DOMContentLoaded event fires - it ensures that the callback is only
