<script type="text/javascript">
function load()
{
//Put your code here
}
</script>
</head>
 
<body onload="load()">
 
</body>
</html>
<html>

<script type="text/javascript">
function load()

Re: Javascript window onload

The best way to do it:

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript">var myFunc = function() {
   alert("Hello World!");
};
 
window.onload = myFunc;
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript">var myFunc = function() {
   alert("Hello World!");
};

window.onload = myFunc;
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Re: Javascript window onload

You can of course do it with W3 event listeners, IE attatch event, or JQuery as well, but you knew that.
