Then, any time before your next action, you may take the readied action in response to that condition. The action occurs just before the action that triggers it. If the triggered action is part of another character’s activities, you interrupt the other character. Assuming he is still capable of doing so, he continues his actions once you complete your readied action."Table: Actions in CombatStandard ActionAttack (melee)Attack (ranged)Attack (unarmed)Activate a magic item other than a potion or oilAid anotherBull rushCast a spell (1 standard action casting time)Concentrate to maintain an active spellDismiss a spellDraw a hidden weapon (see Sleight of Hand skill)Drink a potion or apply an oilEscape a grappleFeintLight a torch with a tindertwigLower spell resistanceMake a dying friend stable (see Heal skill)OverrunRead a scrollReady (triggers a standard action)Sunder a weapon (attack)Sunder an object (attack)Total defenseTurn or rebuke undeadUse extraordinary abilityUse skill that takes 1 actionUse spell-like abilityUse supernatural abilityMove ActionMoveControl a frightened mountDirect or redirect an active spellDraw a weapon4Load a hand crossbow or light crossbowOpen or close a doorMount a horse or dismountMove a heavy objectPick up an itemSheathe a weaponStand up from proneReady or loose a shield4Retrieve a stored itemFull-Round ActionFull attackCharge5Deliver coup de graceEscape from a netExtinguish flamesLight a torchLoad a heavy or repeating crossbowLock or unlock weapon in locked gauntletPrepare to throw splash weaponRunUse skill that takes 1 roundUse touch spell on up to six friendsWithdrawFree ActionCast a quickened spellCease concentration on a spellDrop an itemDrop to the floorPrepare spell components to cast a spell6SpeakNo ActionDelay5-foot stepAction Type VariesDisarmGrappleTrip an opponentUse featMaybe you have not to specify the spell to be cast in advance but you have to specify the "trigger" as for the contingency spell.For me it's good to say:"if a creature comes through the door I cast a spell"; trigger: creature coming through the door; action: cast a spell.</blockquote>
