These solutions will work: As mentioned in comments use defer: <script src=”deferMe.js” defer></script> or <body onload=”script();”> or document.onload = function … or even window.onload = function … Note that the last option is a better way to go since it is unobstrusive and is considered more standard.

Note that this behaviour differs from normal (non-jQuery) event handlers, … Read more
