Javascript：window.onload 问题

Question

This isn't working in IE (although it does work in FFX). Why?

Using HTML in the header:

<script type="application/javascript">

    // And finally, let's call the code ourselves.
    window.onload = lbp.init;

</script>

And then the script:

// lbp is the script's universal variable, which retains everything
var lbp = {};

// The sequence of functions to trigger
lbp.init = function() {
    alert('hi');
}

Thanks in advance for your help =)

Answer 1

I don't know if IE supports application/javascript . Did you try text/javascript ?

Also: is lbp initialized before setting window.onload ?

Answer 2

I think you have declared lbp after window.onload = lbp.init; code. Your code is not working because of the sequence issue.

Try the code in the following sequence.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    var lbp = {};
        // The sequence of functions to trigger
        lbp.init = function() {
        alert('hi');
    }
        
    // And finally, let's call the code ourselves.
    window.onload = lbp.init;
</script>

IE does not support application mime types except for with PDFs. This means IE will completely ignore your JavaScript. Change it to mime type text/javascript .
