A better solution would be to avoid using JavaScript explicitly in your markup altogether and use something like jQuery to extract everything into a separate file; you can do something like this:



$(function()
{
    // This will be run when the document is loaded.
    alert('foo');

    $('#some-link').click(function()
    {
        // This will be run when the element with id `some-link` is clicked.
        alert('bar');
    });
});

No. Just use your javascript.

<body onload="something();">

javascript:

can be used with an attribute of an href

element a

.



<a href="javascript:something();">

But for the protocol, I prefer to use the method onload

.

I would suggest something like

<body>
...
<script>
function something() {}
window.onload = something;
</script>
