These 'paneload' events are processed in the following order: | |||
* SeaMonkey's derived <prefpane> 'paneload' handler is called, loading the scripts specified in the <prefpane>'s 'script' attribute. If defined, the <prefpane>'s Startup() function is called, so that <preference> elements can be created dynamically.<br><i style="color:red">Mind that UI elements tied to <preference>s are '''not''' yet initialized to their <preference> value here!</i> | |||
* Toolkit's <prefpane> 'paneload' handler is called and initializes the <preference> based UI elements. Any 'onsyncfrompreference' handlers attributes on such UI elements are evaluated. (See [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308754 bug 308754] for problems with these handlers.) | |||
* SeaMonkey's <prefwindow> 'paneload' handler is called, synchronizing <tree> and <prefpane>. | |||
* Finally, any <prefpane> 'onpaneload' handler attribute is evaluated. | |||
