Rails - Jan 2006 - "onload" event handler inside a div

Hi. I need help on what is essentially putting an "onload" event
handler
into a div. I am using render :partial and when the partial is loaded, I 
would like the divs to show using an effect from a library such as 
scriptaculous or moofx. However, there is no "onload" for a div. I was
wondering what alternative methods I should use to achieve this.

Thanks!

I''m wondering about this meself.  Does anyone have ideas on this?  I 
have the effect working if I do "onClick", but how can I get the
effect
to work with "onLoad" for a div?

If you put the j-script you want to execute in a <script></script>
block
that appears immediately after the div, and have the script execute 
immediately, then it will only run immediately after the div is in 
place.

E.g.:

<div>
 content content content
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
function do_something_to_div() {
 ...
}

do_something_to_div();
</script>

here''s an example: this is in an RJS file called create.rjs:

page.visual_effect :blind_up, "new_comment_form_for_post_#{@post.id}"

this is called from the create action of a controller....in the create 
action would be something like this:

respond_to do |format|
format.js
end

which would call the RJS...the RJS does the scriptaculous effect that 
makes the div roll up like a blind....the div id is in the speech marks 
after the :blind_up command.....
