Howto know when the DOM is loaded and ready

[Pascal]

Hi all,
I load a html site into the radhtmlplaceholder which contains JS Function that I have to call to initialize the Html page. How do i know when the js functions are completely loaded and ready for use?

When i call them to early, the browser raises an exception which gets shown to the user and that is not really nice.

I call the JS in my Loaded Html page with the following method

var serializedContext = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(dtoPoolPartyContext);
string code = String.Format("document.getElementById('myIFrame').contentWindow.App.setContext({0});", serializedContext);
try
{
   var output = HtmlPage.Window.Eval(code);
}

Does someone have a suggestion how to achieve that?

I think of the following workarounds,
-Poll the site for a special tag in the dom, so then i know when it's ready
-Set the frontend to a defined sleeptime (5 seconds or so)  which is really ugly


Cheers
Pascal

Hello Pascal,

 One workaround I can come up with is to listen for the onload event of the HTML page and from the event handler of the onload event to call your Silverlight method.
