How do determine if a web page has finished loading

[bg]

Hi All,

Wondering how to check to see if a web page has finished loading. I have
a frameset and I want to check to see that one of the frames has finished
loading before taking some action.

thank you

you can check this onload event body tag for the page, as this event is fired
after the page is loaded completely.

Actually, I believe the onLoad is fired at the beginning of a load. I don't
believe there's a clean way to detect a page has completed a load unless
you do something like call a javascript unlocking function at the bottom
of the page, and ensure you preload all your images.

No, I believe it fires at completion. I often put include an animated gif on
my pages which simulates a progress bar. In the Onload event, I put code to
change the style of the image to not visible, and it works fine for me.
