Question

before three years I was a javascript guru. After the JQuery release I forgot everything about JavaScript. This may be a great drawback of this framework, for me. LOL

My issue How I bind a function with the onload event of the document?
I tried so far is:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var d = document.getElementsByTagName('body');
    d.onload=function(){
        alert('Welcome');
    }
</script>

also I tried document.onload = function() etc etc but none works

Answer 1

It’s

window.onload

actually. You don’t use the onload property of the body element, nor of the document object.
