Running Javascript

[arundahar]

How do i run a piece of Javascript that has no User participation? I know how to do all the onclick, onsubmit stuff but here's what i need to do...

My page processes loads of ASP, at some point it gets the name of a product. I want to call the simple document.title, to change the title of the page to the product title. The thing is the User is not clicking on anything and the ASP processing occurs right down the page.

Any ideas?

all functions are run when the page is opened and if the function does not requir user action the event will occure while loading the page. For instance a setfocus() function is read when the page is opened and the cursor is placed in the field the function states. Remember all javascript goes in the head and that ensures it will be read on opening. Does that help. Ted

not really! i knew that. How do you set the focus of the entire page? That way as soon as the page loads and the user moves his mouse i can fire up a function to change the title....

try this:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;> <!--
function newTitle(myTitle)
{
parent.document.title = myTitle;
}

window.onload = newTitle('Our bladibla products');

//--> </script>

or try the same script with:

window.onfocused=newTitle('whatever');
