well, for example, if you want to do something to your DOM elements (divs, links, lists etc) and do it as quickly as possible then you could use document.ready.
if on the other hand you are not in a hurry to change the state of your DOM elements or the functionality you want to achieve is less important than the images on your page, then go for window.load. so if your doing a gallery and your images and all are more important than having a news ticker or form validation or something like that, then window.load may be a better choice. it all depends on what you want to achieve, thats why there are two different events to choose from On Apr 8, 12:24 am, coughlinsmyalias <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thank you!
