Interesting new JavaScript trick from Hedger Wang: poll the doScroll() method of an unattached DOM element until it stops throwing errors, and when it does, the DOM’s loaded. This gives you the
equivalent of the DOMContentLoaded event for IE, and in a rather nicer
way than the current-best method of document.write-ing a script tag
with a defer attribute. I like this a lot, although I’d like to see
some more detail about whether it works in all IEs before switching to it!
