jqueryHow do I use the jQuery document ready function?


The jQuery document ready function is a callback function that is triggered when the DOM is fully loaded. It is used to ensure that all DOM elements are available before executing any jQuery code.

Example code

$(document).ready(function(){
    // jQuery code here
});

The code above will execute the jQuery code inside the function once the DOM is fully loaded.

Code explanation

  1. $(document) - This is a jQuery selector that selects the document object.
  2. .ready() - This is a jQuery method that takes a callback function as an argument.
  3. function(){} - This is a callback function that will be executed once the DOM is fully loaded.
  4. // jQuery code here - This is the code that will be executed once the DOM is fully loaded.
