Summary: Spec should note that onsuccess shouldn’t be used for writes. Product: WebAppsWG Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Indexed Database API AssignedTo: dave.n...@w3.org ReportedBy: yonat...@gmail.com QAContact: public-webapps-bugzi...@w3.org CC: m...@w3.org, public-webapps@w3.org You generally should listen to the transaction’s “complete” event instead of the put/add request’s “success” event, because the transaction may fail after “success.” There’s at least one example of someone being confused by the wording[1]. Perhaps the spec should point out that you usually want to listen to “complete” for write requests. Use of a write request’s “success”/“error” events is probably reserved for advanced use cases (e.g. to commit part of a transaction even when the later requests fail, or to retry a write that failed, or to measure progress when a transaction has multiple parts).
