Wait for .load to finish and then do something

Question

I\'m loading an external script through .load(\'url\') and need to wait for it to finish so I can update the source of an image. Sometimes load is fast enough

Answer 1

Add a callback function:

$('#yourElement').load('yourUrl.html', function() {
  /* When load is done */
});
