| <p>The <code>.ready()</code> method offers a way to run JavaScript code as soon as the page's Document Object Model (DOM) becomes safe to manipulate. This will often be a good time to perform tasks that are needed before the user views or interacts with the page, for example to add event handlers and initialize plugins. When multiple functions are added via successive calls to this method, they run when the DOM is ready in the order in which they are added. As of jQuery 3.0, jQuery ensures that an exception occuring in one handler does not prevent subsequently added handlers from executing.</p> | ||

| <p>Most browsers <a href="http://caniuse.com/#search=DOMContentLoaded">provide similar functionality</a> in the form of a <code>DOMContentLoaded</code> event. However, jQuery's <code>.ready()</code> method differs in an important and useful way: If the DOM becomes ready and the browser fires <code>DOMContentLoaded</code> before the code calls <code>.ready( handler )</code>, the function <code>handler</code> will still be executed. In contrast, a <code>DOMContentLoaded</code> event listener added after the event fires is never executed.<p> |

Fixes #964 (EDIT: corrected ticket)
Sorry but I still don't have a working docs setup. I hope I got all the markup right, if not let me know.
I'm hoping to have a Mac within a few weeks and maybe I can get things working on that.
