jQuery $(document).ready(function () preloads popups, how to prevent?

Question

I need help with my webpage loading time. I use peaces of javascript to load external links in an overlay within my page, which i start by clicking. Now i recognized very slow loading times and all external links being loaded when i connect to my single page url.

I guess its the reason of the parameter $(document).ready(function (), which i use for the overlay.

My question is: can i change the parameter to not preload the internal stuff.

yes you can. Now the actual answer might depend on what you want to do instead of loading on ready. Any fiddle you can share? — gurvinder372, Dec 08 '15 at 10:55
use a different selector? `$('button').click(function{var popups = loadThatPops();});` or something like that — online Thomas, Dec 08 '15 at 11:00

There's an event you can use that runs after $(document).ready() - it's called $(document).load(). Use that instead and it should work.

Here's another SO answer on that: After all $(document).ready() have run, is there an event for that?
