A lightweight script that allows you to make use of jQuery(document).ready before jQuery loads.
Let's consider that your webpage needs to call jQuery stuff when the DOM is ready, by using this common syntax:
<div class="my-div"></div>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($)
{
$('.my-div').jQueryStuff();
});
</script>This code needs jQuery to be loaded first. This is a problem as JS files should be loaded at the bottom of the page.
The jquery.notready script solves it by declaring a fake jQuery object that you can use everywhere on the page, and that will be replaced by the real one when it is propery loaded.
Using jQuery calls in the HTML documents may not be a good thing, but in some cases it has to be done this way - this tool provides a workaround for those specific cases.
bower install jquery.notreadyAlternatively, you may manually install the jquery.notready.min.js and jquery.ready.min.js scripts wherever you want in your project.
Then, call the first script in <head>:
<script src="src/jquery.notready.min.js"></script>
</head>And the second one next to the jQuery call, at the bottom of the page:
<script src="src/vendor/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="src/jquery.ready.min.js"></script>
<!-- [...] -->
</body>
</html>Just make usual jQuery calls on the page. For now, the following syntaxes are supported:
jQuery(document).bind("ready", callback);jQuery(document).ready(callback);jQuery().ready(callback);jQuery(callback);Please note that $ is not supported to avoid compatibility issues.
