Hi, Currently DOMContentLoaded is specified [1] with this sentence: > Queue a task to fire a simple event named DOMContentLoaded at the Document. and "fire a simple event" is defined [2] as "does not bubble (except where otherwise stated) and is not cancelable (except where otherwise stated)". So it's not bubbling and, as far as I understand, per [3] it means it doesn't bubble to Window. I checked Gecko (trunk), Safari (4), Chrome (6) and in all of them it bubbles to window and reports itself as bubbling. (Gecko also reports it as cancellable, but it's a bug I think.) The "fire simple event" wording was added [4] along with the comment that "the firing of events needs to be unified", but that issue appears to be resolved now, so is this a spec bug?
