OnLoad and Templates
I have a question that maybe someone can answer here. I am using a template
in DW6. The edit regions are in the header and the body. I need to call a
function using OnLoad, but the template will not allow the Body tag to be
edited unless I break it away from the template. And I wish to avoid that.
Can anyone suggest a trick or advise another way of doing this.
I though of having a dummy function on all pages in the editable header
region that gets called by OnLoad and on those pages that I need, I have the
dummy function call the actual functions I need. Those pages where I have no
need for function I could just leave dummy function empty, except it must be
added to all pages.
This seems messy to me though. Can anyone suggest a more eloquent approach?
Regards,
Sid
