Question

I’ve a textarea that has keyup event to show a preview of rendered input. However, I want to display the same preview immediately after the element is loaded.

$('textarea[name="ay[description]"]').on('keyup', function(e){

The simplest of all is to initiate .trigger('keyup') at the end of the declaration. However, isn’t there event such as load, onload or ready that I’ve missed under different name?

Answer 1

The onLoad event is known as “load” but it only fires for certain objects / elements (iframes, window, document).

The load event is sent to an element when it and all sub-elements have
been completely loaded. This event can be sent to any element
associated with a URL: images, scripts, frames, iframes, and the
window object.
