Comment:
I&apos;m missing a specification on the relation between onreadystatechange and
onload. Will they be used interchangeably? When will they fire? Will
onreadystatechange fire multiple times during downloading an external resource
(readystate=&quot;loading&quot;)?

    <thetext>Thanks for enlightening me.

Is this sequence also true then for external resources? As far as I can see, the description seems to only describe the process of loading HTML documents. It doesn&apos;t seem to decribe the sequence of events happening when external resouces are interactively loaded (e.g. images, scripts, style sheets) by means of DOM manipulation.</thetext>

Status: Did Not Understand Request
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: The processing for those is defined in the sections that define how those work. I&apos;m not sure what could be done to make the spec clearer.</thetext>

    <thetext>Agreed. The HTML5 spec has become quite huge. It&apos;s hard to find things in there. The corresponding events are missing cross-references to the mentioned topic.

Perhaps a reorganization might feel appropriate?</thetext>
