User defined onready function on the window is triggered when jQuery is present on the page

If I define: function onready(){ console.log("logged"); } in the global scope, nothing happens.

But if I include jquery, this function will be called.

This is what is happening -

[code]if ( document.addEventListener

event.type === "load"

document.readyState === "complete" ) {

detach(); jQuery.ready();

}code

This snippet of code is called when document's content is loaded (DOMContentLoaded or onreadystatechange). "jQuery.ready()" when called, is triggering a ready event on the document (this is to handle $(document).ready). But jQuery goes further ahead, bubbles up the event to window and checks for the presence of any events of the same type are present on the ancestors. In this case, you do have defined a onready function on the window. So, it calls the function. This is totally wrong and shouldn't happen.

Agreed, we can just do a .triggerHandler() instead, which won't bubble and won't fire any associated method.

Core: Do not run window.onready when ready
