You can have   document  ready   multiple times in a page  The code gets run in the sequence in which it appears    You can use the   window  load   event for your code since this happens after the page is fully loaded and all the code in the various   document  ready   handlers have finished running     window  load function        your code here

Have you tried loading all the initialization functions using the     ready  running the jQuery function you wanted last   Perhaps you can use setTimeout   on the     ready function you wanted to run  calling the functionality you wanted to load   Or  use setInterval   and have the interval check to see if all the other load functions have completed  store the status in a boolean variable    When conditions are met  you could cancel the interval and run the load function

Multiple   document  ready   will fire in order top down on the page   The last   document  ready   will fire last on the page   Inside the last   document  ready    you can trigger a new custom event to fire after all the others    Wrap your code in an event handler for the new custom event    lt html gt   lt head gt   lt script gt        document  on  my-event-afterLastDocumentReady   function                 Fires LAST               document  ready function                Fires FIRST               document  ready function                Fires SECOND               document  ready function                Fires THIRD          lt  script gt   lt body gt      other code  scripts  etc      lt  body gt   lt  html gt    lt script gt        document  ready function                Fires FOURTH            This event will fire after all the other   document  ready   functions have completed             Usefull when your script is at the top of the page  but you need it run last           document  trigger  my-event-afterLastDocumentReady             lt  script gt
