[thelist] Problems with late arrivals of JS SRCs

Wed Jan 9 04:46:11 CST 2002

for a really ugly cheap hack, you could put the first function call in a 
<script/> tag at the bottom of the page, so that it's the last thing loaded.

i'm pretty sure that this isn't _supposed_ to be any different from using 
<body onload="foo(()"/> but it saved my bacon on one project i did even 
though i didn't want to use it.
