I have confirmed in this test: http://test.getify.com/archive/dynloadjquery/index6.html
...that Andrea's proposed snippet does in fact "patch a page" to have a proper readyState, assuming of course the snippet itself is guaranteed to run before domready. The test includes it in a manual script tag at the bottom of the page, and then you can click a button to dynamically load jquery into the page, then click the other button to see if jquery's internal ready flag is set properly or not. I used a patched version of jQuery 1.3.2 (1.3.2.1 I called it) which only has the changes to the bindReady() function as they appear in GitHub right now (namely, the additional check for the document.readyState which John landed as a result of that previous bug I linked to earlier in this thread). I tested this just now in both FF3 and 3.5 (both windows), and it works fine. That means, that at least for now, even though patching jquery itself doesn't do much or help anything with the problem of being able to lazy-load jquery core, which my biggest concern/use-case, you can still "patch" a page to be able to lazy-load jquery. That's definitely an improvement. It also means that any code that relies on jquery's test (such as code that uses document.ready) is now also safe to lazy load right along with jquery core itself, as long as doing so in a "patched" page. I'm satisfied that this being included in LABjs will allow users to adequately load jquery.js on-demand without fear of the isReady checks failing later. The only caveat then will be that LABjs has to make sure it's there before dom-ready, but for all the use cases I care about, it's quite unlikely that people will use some other loading technique to lazy-load the Loader itself. --Kyle On Nov 18, 5:03 pm, Már Örlygsson <mar.orlygs...@gmail.com> wrote: > Am I right to think that there's a similar problem with the > window.onload event? > i.e. if you're too late in binding a handler to window.onload, it will > never fire? > > -- > Már -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
