window.onload trouble

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 21.2008

hi all:

im currently using window.onload to initiate my functions but cause the functions only load when the entire page loads i get broken links cause return false wasn’t read, is there anyway to load functions as soon as the page starts loading, since im using it on a side nav bar it takes very little time for the elements to load n they r on a seperate page linked by SSI.

Thx all…

@felgallMar 21.2008 — Two alternatives that should work in all browsers.

  • 1. Call the JavaScript directly from the bottom of the body.

  • 2. Set up a loop to test if the appropriate parts of the page exist that the function needs and run it as soon as it does - see http://javascript.about.com/library/blfastdom.htm for one way to do this.

    Success!
