Dynamically load css stylesheet and wait for it to load

Question

I have a script that detects a button click on which it will attach a CSS stylesheet to the "head" with jQuery like so:

Answer 1

You need to insert a link node in the head and then attach onload event to that. In your code link is a String. See sample code below on how to implement what you want.

var link = document.createElement('link');
link.setAttribute("rel", "stylesheet");
link.setAttribute("type", "text/css");
link.onload = CSSDone;
link.setAttribute("href", 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css');
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(link);
