How to execute JavaScript after page load?

Question

I would like to execute a JavaScript function after the page was loaded. At the moment I have a commandButton and everything works fine. However it would be more comfortable

Answer 1

There are 2 ways that work for me, when I want to execute a JS function after page load in Primefaces:

• either use jQuery (as it is already used by Primefaces), best solution is to nest document.ready twice, so that my JS code is executed after all Primefaces code:
  • jQuery(document).ready(function () { jQuery(document).ready(function () { // twice in document.ready to execute after Primefaces callbacks PathFinder.findAndGo(); }); });
• or use p:remoteCommand with autorun, and place oncomplete JS callback on it
  • this way form is submitted by AJAX to server but no listener executed on server side, a JS callback is executed afterwards
