iframe load event

[Math.]

jQuery does not handle load event for iframe which are not yet added to the document as you can do with img.

Test case:  http://jsfiddle.net/5KK7w/

Works: $('body').append('<iframe id="iframe1"/>'); $('#iframe1').load(function(){

alert('iframe loaded');

}).attr({'src':srcIframe});

Does not work: $('<iframe id="iframe1"/>').load(function(){

alert('iframe loaded'); $(this).appendTo('body');

}).attr({'src':srcIframe});

If you watch the network traffic, you can see that the iframe src is not retrieved until the iframe is appended to the body. Therefore, it has not yet loaded as an image would.

[Math.]

That's right and jQuery should handle this.

That's not something we can control. It has not loaded yet.
