    Trouble with <body onLoad="..."> not running ..?

    I need to run a javascript function on page load and have included the script. i am using the command <body onLoad="EmptyCart()" which is a function within the included script. Only problem is, it runs the function when i run it on the server i have set up on my home computer, but when uploaded onto my webhosting server, the script just doesn't run. I am assuming that the server must not be allowing onload functions would this be correct? of am i just doing something wrong.

    cheers, Mark.

      here is the source code:

      <html>
      <head>
      <title>PostItToMe.com Checkout</title>
      <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
      <SCRIPT SRC="language-en.js"></SCRIPT><SCRIPT SRC="nopcart.js">
      //=====================================================================||
      // NOP Design JavaScript Shopping Cart ||
      //---------------------------------------------------------------------||
      // Visit NOP Design at http://www.nopdesign.com/freecart ||
      //=====================================================================||
      </SCRIPT>
      </head>
      <body onLoad = "EmptyCart()" bgcolor="#EEEEEE" text="#000000" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
      ';

      Thankyou.

        Doesn't help much. What's the source of the EmptyCart function? How about showing us the source of nopcart.js and language-en.js so that we can have a look at the actual source of the problem?

          ok, the language-en.js file is not of much relevence as it is just the english messages etc.
          here is the script source, the EmptyCart() function is the last one.

            You have the contents of the function commented out!
            Code:
            function EmptyCart()
{
   var NumberOrdered = 0;    //Number of products ordered

   [color=red]/*[/color]iNumberOrdered = GetCookie("NumberOrdered");
   if ( iNumberOrdered == null )
      iNumberOrdered = 0;

   for ( i = 1; i <= iNumberOrdered; i++ ) {
      NewOrder = "Order." + i;
      DeleteCookie (NewOrder,"/");
   }[color=red]*/[/color]
   alert("Cart is now empty!");

              only the top part is commented out, i am just trying to get it to run at all, so am just interested in the alert line so i know it is running mostly.

                So the alert doesn't show at all?
                Maybe you have window.onload handler somewhere below the <body> tag, which overrides the onload handler defined in body tag.

                  I ran the codes with a body onload event handler. The alert fires but there is an error thrown on line 135 that bLanguage is undefined. bLanguageDefined is a string used with the language pack.

                  If the O/P made any changes or commented anything out in that script, he/she should look there.

                  FWIW: The site which provided the codes has a forum section just for this script. The link is on their homepage.
