phpchick Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hi, I have a website that autoloads a modal window. The behavior currently is that it waits until the entire page is loaded before the modal pops up. Sometimes this can take a long time to load. I was wondering if there was a way to make the modal pop up immediately, regardless of whether the page is done loading. The page can finish loading while the modal is up obviously. This is what I am currently using to call the modal. <body <?php echo "onload='$(\"a#various3\").trigger(\"click\");' "; ?> > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fugix Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 try executing the function in the head section of your website Edit: or even the body, just dont use the onload event, as this event tells the function to wait until the entire page is loaded...then execute the script Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Since this a modal pop-up you shouldn't place the code within the head of your document, as the body's HTML hasn't been constructed yet. Instead you should place it just before the closing body tag. This means you escape waiting for the onload to complete, but the DOM structure exists for you to make adjustments.
