自动调用点击处理程序以在页面加载时加载jQuery对话框

Question

I've got a page, on the page there is a button wrapped in an anchor tag:

<a href="javascript:void(0)" data-bind="click: AddNewThread, text: 'Add New Discussion'" class="btn new"></a>

This calls a function labeled as AddNewThread , now this function opens up a dialog Box using jQuery, and in the dialog box there is a text field that you enter text to, and this text is then pasted on the page using ajax.

The problem: I want to remove the click event entirely; I want to have it on page load, it will load the text box, and the functionality is remaining the same, But I just don't know how to go about this.

Here's the code for the AddNewThread function:

function DiscussionViewModel() {
    var self = this;
    self.New = ko.mapping.fromJS(newDiscussion);
    self.Threads = ko.mapping.fromJS(threads, mapping);
    self.AddNewThread = function () {
        $("#dvAddDiscussion").dialog('open');
        ko.mapping.fromJS(newDiscussion, self.New);

        if (CKEDITOR.instances["txtDiscussioinDescription"] != undefined) {
            CKEDITOR.instances["txtDiscussioinDescription"].setData('');
        }
    };
    self.AddReply = function (thread) {
        $("#txtDiscussioinDescription").val('');
        self.LastDiscussionId(thread.New.ParentId());
        self.New.Title('');
        self.New.DiscussionId(thread.New.DiscussionId());
        self.New.Type(thread.New.Type());
        self.New.TypeId(thread.New.TypeId());
        self.New.Description('');
        self.New.ParentId(thread.New.ParentId());
        self.New.UserId(thread.New.UserId());
        self.New.User(thread.New.User());
        $("#dvAddDiscussion").dialog('open');

    };
    self.LastDiscussionId = ko.observable();
    self.SubmitReply = function (form) {
        var jForm = $(form);
        $("#dvAddDiscussion").dialog('close');
        var request = jForm.serialize();
        var discussionId = $("#DiscussionID").val();
        var parentId = $("#ParentId").val();
$.post(addDiscussionUrl, request, function (response) {
            if (response) {
                if ((discussionId == '' || discussionId == undefined) && parentId == '') {
                    $.post(summariesUrl, { type: type, objectId: objectId }, function (response) {
                        ko.mapping.fromJS(response, mapping, self.Threads);
                        $("abbr.timeago").timeago();
                    });
                } else {
                    self.LoadReplies(self.LastDiscussionId());
                }

            } else {
                alert("Error occured while adding discussion");
            }
        });


    };
    self.GetReplies = function (data) {
        var thread;

        if (data.IsMaximized() == true) {
            for (var i = 0; i < self.Threads().length; i++) {
                if (self.Threads()[i].DiscussionId() == data.DiscussionId()) {
                    self.Threads()[i].IsMaximized(false);
                    break;

Answer 1

You just need to call the function at the appropriate time, which in this case is within your jQuery ready handler, right after this block:

$("#frmAddDiscussion").bind('click', function () {
    CKEDITOR.instances.txtDiscussioinDescription.updateElement();
});

You should be able to just add:

discussionViewmodel.AddNewThread();

This will invoke the function the same way that knockout would have done through the click data binding.
