Visualforce page to run javascript onload?

is it possible to have javascript run upon opening a visual page? I know I can get the apex controller constructor to run, but I want javascript to access the browser url.

 

The following only works in development mode:

<script type="text/javascript">
    
    var detailURL= parent.document.referrer;
    detailURL = detailURL.substring(detailURL.lastIndexOf('/')+1);

    function init() {
        
        if ((detailURL > "" ) && (detailURL.length == 15)) {
            alert('pushing '+detailURL);
            nowPushURL(detailURL);
            
        }
    }
    parent.onload = init; //window.onload;
    </script>

Use this instead:

 

 

<BODY onLoad="init()"/>

Try out sample code given below :

 

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

            function checkCondition()

            {

              // your logic here

             }

 

Hope this helps.
