DHTML Events

---

Inline HTML	<element onreadyStatechange = "handler" ... >	All platforms
Event property	object.onreadyStatechange = handler	ECMA-262 Language Specification
Named script	<script FOR=object EVENT=onreadyStatechange>	Internet Explorer® only

Bubbles	No
Cancels	No
To invoke	Change the ready state.
Default action	Signals the ready state of the document.

The readyState property exposes a set of ready states: initializing, interactive, and loaded. The onreadyStatechange event fires whenever the specified ready states change. When an object changes to the loaded state, this event fires immediately before the firing of the onload event.

While event handlers in the Document Object Model do not receive parameters directly, the handler can query the event object for data.
