Hi,
I am trying to find an event listener which will trigger when the pages
starts loading, as opposed to when it's finished, or when the DOM
content has finished loading. I am sure that such a listener exists,
but I can't seem to find it. I would appreciate any pointers.
Many thanks.

What would be the point in that? Such an event would have already fired
before a script could add a listener: the document must already be in
the process of loading for a script to executed.

Any scripts you include in the <headwill execute before the body
starts loading. Just be careful not to reference DOM elements which
haven't been parsed and created yet.
just curious, what do you need to do before the page loads?

I am making a Firefox extension which will work on named sites, and
strip out the <scripttags for Google Ads, as the page loads. At the
moment, the page is taking 2-5 times longer to load because it's
waiting for ad2.googlesyndi cation.com. With these stripped, it should
be even quicker. Alternatively, I need to find a way of stopping the
script from even executing, but I am not sure if I can...
Thanks.

When the page begins to load, it isn't aware of any of your code,
so how could it possibly invoke your method?
Just put inline code in the <headsection of the page.

Hi Mike,
You are right to an extent. The javascript is run from outside of the
page by the browser. It's loaded when the browser is fired up, and
stays there until the browser is closed. What you are saying makes
sense, however. Perhaps I am either looking for something Firefox
specific, as in regular JavaScript there is no use for such a listener,
or perhaps I could do something with the document.locati on object?
Thanks for your input.
Daz.

Ok, I have just figured it out. What I needed was a a
WebProgressList ener, which is completely unrelated to JavaScript. Sorry
for the confusion, and thanks for your input everyone. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Is it possible to set up an event handler or something else
so that when *any* link on the page is clicked it 'fires-up',
executes some JS and then continues to process the link
that was clicked?
(Without having JS or 'onClick' added to each & every link?)
I've looked everywhere but can't find out how,
or if it's even possible via Javascript...
Regards.

My element:
<span onclick="alert('test')" id="mySpan">test</span>
Let's say that I don't know what is in this span's onclick event. Is it
possible to add another action to this element's onclick event ? I've tried
something like this:
oncl = document.getElementById('mySpan').onclick
oncl = oncl + '\n;alert(\'added\')'
document.getElementById('mySpan').onclick = oncl

I have the need to use dynamically loaded user controls in a webform page.
I have the controls loading dynamically, and that part works fine. this is

It appears that this event (window.onbeforeunload) does not fire at least in
Netscape 7.0 and 7.1. But window.onload and window.onunload events do! I
really need this event handling in my application as I need to show message
after submit button click but before actual unload wich starts after client
receive responce from the server. This responce is very slow sometimes. Thus
client should be warned.
Does anybody know how to solve this...

event.py
An event manager using publish/subscribe, and weakrefs.
Any function can publish any event without registering it first, and
any
object can register interest in any event, even if it doesn't exist
yet.
The event manager uses weakrefs, so lists of listeners won't stop them

hi all,
I have this .aspx page for which the Page_load event occurs twice. I found
out while debugging. After searching google, I tried checking with
Page.Ispostback method and also had "AutoEventWireUp" = false and also run
after removing this tag from page directive but still my page_load event
gets called twice.
I have 3 pages called Search.asp, Processing.aspx and ConfirmSearch.aspx.

Hello everyone,
I would like to open a child window from the parent, and add an onload
event listener to the child window which will tell the parent when the
document has loaded. As far as I know, this shouldn't be an issue, but
I just can't get it to work. The script only needs to work with
Firefox/Mozilla, so XP code isn't an issue.
I have tried to open a window like so.

I have a function that will download XML from internet and load XML
data into database.
The function will take 5 - 20 minutes to finish.
I heard I should use event sink (event listener) when function is
finished the task, then it will notify the caller.
So I am planning to create a seperate thread to do the long XML
loading function by using - _beginthreadex()

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
