how to load a js file and execute it on CEF

I use CEF(chromium ebedded Framework) load a html page:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
        <script src="phantom-limb.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    </body>
</html>

and it works ok. now, I modify the page as follow:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    </body>
</html>

and after cef loaded it, I use cef's ExecuteJavaScript method to execute the same phantom-limb.js, but nothing appear.

how can I load the js file and execute, or, the js file has some limit?

thx:)

Solution

  • As you can see at the end of the source code of you JS file, the startOnLoad config parameter is set to true by default.

    In this way a listener to the DOMContentLoaded is added, which is never called because your page is already loaded.

    So, you just have to append the line start(); to your source code, then call your ExecuteJavaScript and it will work even after the page is loaded.
