Call JavaScript Function

[Mike McIntyre]

What event can be used to call a JavaScript function when the page loads AND
when it receives a response from the web server?

Thanks,

The body's onload event is raised when the page has been fully loaded.
I'm not sure what you mean about "when it receives a response from the web
server".

In the Page_Load method use:

string strScript = @"<script language=""javascript"">
window.alert(""put your script here""); </script>";
Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(Page), "ScriptName",
strScript);

That should do it.

string strScript = @"<script language=""javascript"">

That usage is deprecated because it's not XHTML-compliant - instead, use:

string strScript = "<script type=\"text/javascript\">

Or, even better, use the overloaded method of RegisterStartupScript which
adds in the script tags automatically:

This seems to fire only when the page is first loaded into the browser - not
each time the page gets a response from the server.

The Page_Load event fires whenever the Page is requested. I believe that by
"the page gets a response from the server" you are referring to a PostBack.
The Page doesn't get a response from the server. The browser does, every
time it requests a Page. But the Page_Load event fires with each response,
not just the initial (non-PostBack) response.
