How do you deal with the situation of a given element having something else load afterwards? Easy, use a Pause command for an element that loads after that.

The programmer or absolute answer seeker type may wish to explore the concept of absolutely knowing the page has loaded.

I caution you about this approach for 3 reasons:

1. You will apply it to every page transition in every automation you write, needlessly slowing them all down.

2. You may think you have solved knowing when pages are loaded. Trust me on this one, you will never fully understand how progressive loading really works in all situations.

3. Because your understanding is by definition incomplete, you will never actually get this universally page load detection right – but you think you have because it will work in many situations; giving a false sense of security.
