{{APIRef("SVG")}}

The load event fires on an SVGElement when it is loaded in the browser, e.g., in the DOM in the case of an embedded <svg>. It is basically the same as the standard load DOM event.

This event is not cancelable and does not bubble.

Syntax

Use the event name in methods like {{domxref("EventTarget.addEventListener", "addEventListener()")}}, or set an event handler property.

js-nolint
addEventListener("load", (event) => { })

onload = (event) => { }

Event type

A generic {{domxref("Event")}}.

Examples

js
svgElem.addEventListener("load", () => {
  console.log("SVG loaded.");
});
