Comment 69 by kbjorgen...@gmail.com, Jun 16, 2010 But just to confirm. The "beforeload" event only occurs on elements loading inside a page and not the top level document that you type in the address bar to get, right? Is there a way to get that yet?
And @gundlach/@aa@chromium.org, yes turning on the "experimental" blocking in adblock works in Chrome 5 for me. Comment 70 by jacobmp92, Jun 16, 2010 Out of curiosity, does beforeload fire for plugin connections (ie, Flash)? That would make it very useful. Though I can't complain, having this around at all is awesome. Comment 71 by project member aa@chromium.org, Jun 16, 2010 @kbjorgensen2000: You are right. That is why we aren't closing this bug yet. The "beforeload" feature is considered a good workaround but not a complete solution.
@jacobmp92: I'm not sure. Try it! (and thank Apple -- they added it to WebKit, we just inherited it).
