XMLHttpRequest: loadend event
=============================

The **`loadend`** event is fired when a request has completed, whether successfully (after `load`) or unsuccessfully (after `abort` or `error`).

Syntax
------

Use the event name in methods like `addEventListener()`, or set an event handler property.


```js
addEventListener("loadend", (event) => {});

onloadend = (event) => {};
```

Event type
----------

A `ProgressEvent`. Inherits from `Event`.

ProgressEventEvent properties
----------------

*In addition to the properties listed below, properties from the parent interface, `Event`, are available.*

`lengthComputable` Read only 

A boolean flag indicating if the total work to be done, and the amount of work already done, by the underlying process is calculable. In other words, it tells if the progress is measurable or not.

`loaded` Read only 

A 64-bit unsigned integer value indicating the amount of work already performed by the underlying process. The ratio of work done can be calculated by dividing `total` by the value of this property. When downloading a resource using HTTP, this only counts the body of the HTTP message, and doesn't include headers and other overhead.

`total` Read only 

A 64-bit unsigned integer representing the total amount of work that the underlying process is in the progress of performing. When downloading a resource using HTTP, this is the `Content-Length` (the size of the body of the message), and doesn't include the headers and other overhead.

 type="button"
 name="xhr"
 value="Click to start XHR (abort)" />
</div>

<textarea readonly class="event-log"></textarea>
```

.event-log {
  width: 25rem;
  height: 4rem;

  padding: 0.2rem;
}

input {
  width: 11rem;
  margin: 0.5rem;
}
```


#### JavaScript


```js
const xhrButtonSuccess = document.querySelector(".xhr.success");
const xhrButtonError = document.querySelector(".xhr.error");
const xhrButtonAbort = document.querySelector(".xhr.abort");
const log = document.querySelector(".event-log");

function handleEvent(e) {
  log.textContent = `${log.textContent}${e.type}: ${e.loaded} bytes transferred\n`;
}

function addListeners(xhr) {
  xhr.addEventListener("loadstart", handleEvent);
  xhr.addEventListener("load", handleEvent);
  xhr.addEventListener("loadend", handleEvent);
  xhr.addEventListener("progress", handleEvent);
  xhr.addEventListener("error", handleEvent);
  xhr.addEventListener("abort", handleEvent);
}

function runXHR(url) {
  log.textContent = "";

  const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
  addListeners(xhr);
  xhr.open("GET", url);
  xhr.send();
  return xhr;
}

xhrButtonSuccess.addEventListener("click", () => {
  runXHR(
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mdn/content/main/files/en-us/\_wikihistory.json",
  );
});

xhrButtonError.addEventListener("click", () => {
  runXHR("http://i-dont-exist");
});

xhrButtonAbort.addEventListener("click", () => {
  runXHR(
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mdn/content/main/files/en-us/\_wikihistory.json",
  ).abort();
