was event loop evaluation model used in web browsers control interaction between dom events (and later network) concomitantly developed brendan eich javascript?

or did pre- or post-date javascript?

edit: asking placement of event-loop inside browsers. aware event loop long-standing invention.

the event loop predates javascript.. tiny bit.

the event loop introduced support progressive download of pictures in netscape. , used support rendering dom elements displayed on screen before images downloaded.

at time, other browsers displayed blank white screen while images downloaded. net effect netscape appears faster though takes same amount of time download , render complete page.

once event loop there (initially handle network code downloading images) javascript processing added loop.
