Select checkbox after page loads

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 24.2005

I have a function that works with checkboxes, but when the page loads it clears one of the checkboxes that I want checked. Even when I have “checked” in the input tag. How can I set a time so it will be checked after tha page loads, like 2-3 seconds.

</i>secs = 3; // seconds to check after
to = setTimeout('checkfunc()',secs*1000);

function checkfunc() {
document.getElementById('idofcheckbox').checked = true;
}


Hope this helps.
