Body tag locked by template

I have a page which is based on a template and the body tag is not accessible.
I wish to use a popup window and had thought that the Body onLoad method was
the route to go...

If possible, I don't want to detatch the page from the template so I wonder if
there is another option. I am using DMX04.
Thanx.

look at http://projectseven.com on their free extension page.
"RunEm" allows firing js functions from in the head of the doc, no need to
mess with the body tag.

Thanx. But how do you use this?

okay, in trying the RunEm extension- it seems the functions already have to
be in the body tag.

this will explain what you should do-
http://projectseven.com/support/answers.asp?id=129
It describes a way to use a simple js function named runit to move onLoad
events from the body tag to up in the head section. Put this in an editable
region in the head, and you can add/remove events as needed.

Thanx again Alan. This goes some way to solving my problem, but runEm seems to
generate extra lines of code that are quite different from the runIt function.
For some reason (quite likely me!) it doesn't seem to be working properly. I am
still working on this one.

i dont use a lot of extensions so am not sure.

guess i'd suggest is to use the RunIt code, and do it manually.

or- if it's just images you want to preload on a templated page- apply the
preload behavior to some image that's in an editable area of the page.
