Hi there

I need to use an OnLoad command on the body tag in an include page; however, if I use a body tag in my include page the whole page messes up. Is there any other tag I can use the OnLoad command on other than the body tag?

thanks

Adam

Hi Adam,

What sort of include page are you using - external javascript, asp, other... ?

Best regards,

Chris

I would embed the included page in an iframe, were I you.

it's an asp page that I'm including

Personally I never include a page unless it's absolutely necessary because 1) your stylesheets and scripts apply to the included page 2) the included page's scripts and stylesheets are applied to your page and 3) the body and sometimes other tags coexist and conflict (your problem).

I would, like I said in my previous post, use an iframe.

HTH,

Snib

OK, thanks Snib

If you are not already using the onload event, you can just add a script block to the page, something like...

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = myFunction;

function myFunction(){
// do some stuff here
}
</script>

If you are already using the onload event, you could add additional event listeners using window.attachEvent for IE & window.addEventListener for Mozilla.

bfn,

Chris

Hi Chris

Can you see why this is not working? There's no error but it doesn't seem to randomize my images.

thanks

Adam

<script language="javascript">

window.onLoad = choosePic;

    Pix = new Array("image_bin/lpe_top_banner.jpg","image_bin/topbanner2.jpg","image_bin/topbanner3.jpg","image_bin/topbanner4.jpg")
    imgCt = Pix.length



function choosePic() {
        if (document.images) {
            randomNum = Math.floor((Math.random() * imgCt))
            document.pic.src = Pix[randomNum]
        }
    }

</script>
<table width="100%" height="113" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="874" height="113" valign="top" background="image_bin/lpe_top_banner.jpg" name="pic">

Hi Adam,

It's case sensitivity, you need window.onload, not window.onLoad.

Cheers,

Chris
