jQuery Event - ready() Method
Example
Activate the function after the document is loaded:
$(document).ready(function(){ $(".btn1").click(function(){ $("p").slideToggle(); }); });
Definition and Usage
The ready event occurs when the DOM (Document Object Model) has been loaded, and the page (including images) has been fully displayed.
Since this event occurs after the document is ready, it is a good practice to place all other jQuery events and functions within this event, as shown in the example above.
The ready() function specifies the code to be executed when the ready event occurs.
The ready() function can only be used for the current document, so no selector is needed.
The following three syntaxes can be used:
Syntax 1
$(document).ready(function)
Syntax 2
$().ready(function)
Syntax 3
$(function)
Parameters | Description |

function | Required. Specifies a function to be executed after the document is loaded. |
Tips and Comments
Tip:The ready() function should not be used with <body onload="">.
