Check readyState of a window opened using window.open

I have a JS script that opens a pdf in a new tab. 

var newWindow = window.open("url", "docWindow");

Is it possible to check if that document has loaded without running a script on that window, to check the readyState status of that document from the original tab?

After struggling I found the best solution from jquery webpage.

https://learn.jquery.com/using-jquery-core/document-ready/

$( window ).on( "load", function() {
    console.log( "window loaded" );
});

After the entire window is loaded you can run your code. Hope this helps someone in future.

I believe, this should be possible with window this way:

newWindow.onload = function () {
  // Do stuff after window is loaded.
};

For the ReadyState, you can use the window.document:

newWindow.document.readyState;

Set an event handler on the readyState and call your opening function.

newWindow.document.onreadystatechange = function () {
  if (newWindow.document.readyState === "complete") {
    // Call the code.
  }
}
