I suppose you could call it that. The main issue is that people are confused with the current wording and assume it either doesn't cover cached images or that in case of images being cached the text does not apply. (The Opera browser has for some time not dispatched those events because of incorrect assumptions.) So a generic note somewhere that downloading can refer to retrieving it over the network or reading it from the cache, etc. would be good. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
