DOMContentLoaded

Esta traducción está incompleta. Por favor, ayuda a traducir este artículo del inglés.

El evento DOMContentLoaded es disparado cuando el documento HTML ha sido completamente cargado y parseado, sin esperar hojas de estilo, images y subframes para  finalizar la carga. Un evento muy diferente - load - deberia ser usado solo para detectar una carga completa de la pagina. Es un error increiblemente popular usar load cuando DOMContentLoaded seria mucho mas apropiado, ser cuidadoso.

Nota: Synchronous Javascript pauses parsing of the DOM.

Nota: There are also plenty of general-purpose and standalone libraries who offer cross-browser methods to detect that the DOM is ready.

Speeding up

If you want DOM to get parsed as fast as possible after the user had requested the page, some things you could do is turn your JavaScript asynchronous and to optimize loading of stylesheets which if used as usual, slow down page load due to being loaded in parallel, "stealing" traffic from the main html document.

Example

<script>
  document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
    console.log("DOM fully loaded and parsed");
  });
</script>
<script>
  document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
    console.log("DOM fully loaded and parsed");
  });

for(var i=0; i<1000000000; i++)
{} // this synchronous script is going to delay parsing of the DOM. So the DOMContentLoaded event is going to launch later.
</script>

[1] Bubbling for this event is supported by at least Gecko 1.9.2, Chrome 6, and Safari 4.

[2] Internet Explorer 8 supports the readystatechange event, which can be used to detect when the DOM is ready. In earlier versions of Internet Explorer, this state can be detected by repeatedly trying to execute document.documentElement.doScroll("left");, as this snippet will throw an error until the DOM is ready.
