How to make a window.onload event fire without reloading the page javascript

Question

I am wondering if it is possible to cause a window.onload event to occur without reloading the page. I want to use this becuase I am using ajax to load new pages, however this ajax load method doesn't make the window.onload event fire.

Right now I am using:

location.reload(); 

But this causes the whole page to reload.

Thanks

Answer 1

I am not sure what is the purpose here, but let's assume you have this:

window.onload = function() {...};

You could do this instead:

var bootstrap = function() {...}
window.onload = bootstrap;

then in other part of your code, where you want to simulate the onload , just call bootstrap function by yourself.

Answer 2

Inside your call back function you might say,

window.location.href = 'correctpath_here';

Or

window.location.reload = true;
