i have this chatbox, and when users login i want it to send a message like this:

Admin: User is online

I really want to use a javascript code for this, because i can work with it quite good. I already have some example, but the problem here is that it does not do something until it is called to do it’s function. THATS what i want to achieve, just that when the page is opened up, it does that function one time.

function onLine(message)
{
document.writeform.bericht.value+=message;
document.writeform.bericht.focus();
write1();
}

explanation: onLine is the function and (message) tells what it should say. For example: 

...
onclick="onLine('User is online');"
...

the function write1() sends it.

HELP?!

    Do you want to run that function once when the page is loaded? If so, you have many possible ways to do it. A couple of simple ones:

    <body onload="onLine('User is online')">

    This will call the function when all the page components are loaded. You could also add this to the end of the page:

    <script type="text/javascript">
  onLine('User is online');
</script>

    There are also javascript libraries like jQuery and prototype, which you should have a look at if you haven’t yet.
