getting started, require-function

georgandersson — Wed, 08 Jul 2015 08:22:48 GMT

attached a simple example of how to initialize a map und wire up an Event handler. this works fine.

now, i have to adapt this code to initialize a map in a div, that isn't accessible at the time of the initial load of the page. the whole map-initialization und eventhandler-wiring would need to be placed in a function, that can be accessed at runtime.

how would i do that? all i tried so far was poor...

regards

Have a look at dojo/domReady! — The Dojo Toolkit - Reference Guide

As Josh has mentioned add "dojo/domReady!" as your last require. I would also add "dojo/parser" as seen here. And as your first line user parser.parse() which can be seen in the link under "running the parser".

i'm not shure, if domReady solves this. i'm using asp.net to create an aspx-page that loads several ascx-controls depending on the users interaction. only if one specific button gets hit, the control holding the map-div is loaded. so during the initial loading of the page, the div is never accessible...

I may have missunderstood. Here's a sample of how to create the div and map from scratch after the page is loaded:
