Event Specifications for Joomla! 1.6

As events are apparently cheap in 1.6, this affords us the opportunity to add some new triggers and events. This document will be a place to design a consistent specification so that the triggers that we add will follow a predictable naming convention and will work in a manner that the user would expect.

Naming Convention

Event names are "namespaced", except for system events which don't have a namespace. All events should follow the convention "on[NameSpace](before|after)[Event]".

Content Events

• onContentBeforeDisplay
• onContentAfterDisplay
• onContentSearch
• onContentSearchAreas
• onContentBeforeSave
• onContentAfterSave
• onContentBeforeDelete
• onContentPrepare
• onContentPrepareData
• onContentPrepareForm
