Want to know is is possible to have 2 diff. onload events in the same page? I have 2 different scripts for 2 diff. things. They both use onload event.....if so, how can we handle it. Thanks.

It is for images, but once you use the onload event in the body tag it overrides the image tag onload events. I think//

Given there are no other conflicts between the scripts, you simply write them together. If the originals said onload="xxxxx" and onload="yyyyy" respectively, then you can write them together as onload="xxxxx;yyyyy". A better approach would perhaps be to do it in script though.

I usually just make a new function and have that call my two other functions.

<html>
<head>
<script>
function newFunction(){
xxxx();
yyyy();
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="newFunction();">
</body>
</html>
