Hi,
I want to call a javascript function after my page has loaded. Currently I am using: <body onload="do_stuff()"> Is there a neater / tidier way to do this using any rails specific commands?
I found this:
document.observe('dom:loaded', function() { $('state_field').hide(); $('person_country_id').observe('change', countrySelected); });
which is part of a tutorial for creating dynamic drop down menus, but when I, for example, try:
document.observe('dom:loaded', function() { alert('hello'); });
this has no effect, rather it is output as html, as though I had witten <p>document.observe('dom:loaded', function() {alert('hello');});</p>
Grateful for any help.
