document.readyState == 'interactive' is invalid DOM ready test in IE10 #136
Description
This relates to a bug in the v2.0 branch.
/complete|interactive/.test(document.readyState) and document.onreadystatechange are not reliable as DOM ready tests. All versions of IE can have interactive state before the DOM is fully loaded. Also, readystatechange can fire before the DOM is fully loaded.
I have written an exploratory test which is sufficient to confirm this bug.

The jQuery project also has a bug report -
document ready is fired too early on IE 9/10
and a "fix" -
sometimes IE10 and lower have document.readyState == "interactive" way too early
domReady also has a report and fix -
Add Guard for invalid readyState in IE9 and IE10
