This might be more suitable in Code snippets?

sometimes its blank
Hi, I have a problem with this. It could be that I do something wrong. However: about 1 out of 5 times the content stays blank. I tried to change the timeout to 1000. I tested it 20 times, and it worked all the time.
Isn't there a "domIsNowCreatedAndYouCanGoAhead" event that we can listen to instead of using setTimeout?
How about this instead?
It seems it works better
function $(id) {return document.getElementById(id)}; var iframe = document.createElement("iframe"); iframe.setAttribute("id", "settings"); iframe.setAttribute("style", "display:block;z-index:1002;position:fixed;overflow:auto;left:30px;top:30px;right:30px;bottom:30px;background-color:white;padding:15px;border:1px solid black"); iframe.addEventListener('load', showSettings2, false); function showSettings2() { $('LIU_settings').contentDocument.body.innerHTML = '<html><body>test</body></html>'; }
Data URI
Isn't this a prime time to use a data URI?
iframe.src = 'data:text/html;charset=utf-8,'+escape('<html><body>...</body><html>');
Thus avoid all the issues with the DOM rendering and having to wait for load?
