phantomjs/examples/page_events.js

// The purpose of this is to show how and when events fire, considering 5 steps
// happening as follows:
//
//      1. Load URL
//      2. Load same URL, but adding an internal FRAGMENT to it
//      3. Click on an internal Link, that points to another internal FRAGMENT
//      4. Click on an external Link, that will send the page somewhere else
//      5. Close page
//
// Take particular care when going through the output, to understand when
// things happen (and in which order). Particularly, notice what DOESN'T
// happen during step 3.
//
// If invoked with "-v" it will print out the Page Resources as they are
// Requested and Received.
//
// NOTE.1: The "onConsoleMessage/onAlert/onPrompt/onConfirm" events are
// registered but not used here. This is left for you to have fun with.
// NOTE.2: This script is not here to teach you ANY JavaScript. It's aweful!
// NOTE.3: Main audience for this are people new to PhantomJS.
