Questions tagged [pageloadstrategy]

When a new document loads, the point at which the command returns the control is determined by the session’s page loading strategy.

When a new document loads, the point at which the command returns the control is determined by the session’s page loading strategy.

The normal state causes the control to return after the load event fires on the new page, eager causes the control to return after the DOMContentLoaded event fires, and none causes the control to return immediately.
