add support for server-side

[ahdinosaur]

hi! thanks for domready. :)

in order to make it easier to share code on the client and server, it'd be nice if domready didn't error whenever called on the server.

what context and purpose does this serve on the server side?

[ahdinosaur]

the context is when you share code on the client and server and this code has calls to domready in it, not that domready is useful on the server but that it is coupled with other useful code. the purpose is to make domready friendlier so as not to throw a Reference Error when called on the server.

to be honest though, a better solution is to do the reverse if check in the shared code and not in domready:

if (typeof document !== 'undefined') {
  domready(function () {
    Backbone.history.start() // or whatever
  });
}

maybe this issue can be a guide to anyone who also runs into this error.

cheers! :)

No worries. My recommendation is to simply not even load this code on the server since it clearly isn't sharable. But don't get me wrong, I'm all for shareable libs, this just isn't one of them
