As such DOMContentLoaded is the sole exception to this convention. It would be useful to change this to maintain a consistent naming convention. Perhaps this could be renamed, for example, to "contentloaded"?

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: Test case: http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/saved/1069 IE10PP2, Firefox 7.0a2, and Chrome 14 dev all support only "DOMContentLoaded". Opera 11.50 supports "DOMContentLoaded" and "domcontentloaded", but not "contentloaded". Thus the spec matches browsers, so it seems correct. Changing already-deployed features like this can only be done with really good reason, which I don't see here. 50989 3 glenn 2011-07-14 01:38:04 +0000 ok, i accept, but it's a shame that this one inconsistency stands out 52383 4 mike 2011-08-04 05:00:54 +0000 mass-moved component to LC1
