3.3 What happens when a page is ready

By default the buffer is changed to the web page when the page is ready. See ‘wwe-page-ready-action’ to change what happens - this depends on the function ‘wwe-show-page-ready’ being set to the ‘wwe-page-ready-functions’ hook.

The defualt page ready action is 'buffer. You can open in another window with or without selecting it ('window or 'window-no-select) or open in another frame ('frame). You can also display a message or do nothing at all ('message or nil) which works like background tabs in other browsers.
