How to run a function when the page is loaded?
Posted By: Anonymous
I want to run a function when the page is loaded, but I don’t want to use it in the <body> tag.
I have a script that runs if I initialise it in the <body>, like this:
function codeAddress() {
// code
}
<body onLoad="codeAddress()">
But I want to run it without the <body onload="codeAddress()"> and I have tried a lot of things, e.g. this:
window.onload = codeAddress;
But it is not working.
So how do I run it when the page is loaded?
Solution
window.onload = codeAddress; should work – here’s a demo, and the full code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function codeAddress() {
alert('ok');
}
window.onload = codeAddress;
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html><!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function codeAddress() {
alert('ok');
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="codeAddress();">
</body>
