Just stick a call to the functions you want at the end of the page output then as the browser renders the page they will run, or use the onload event.

 

echo "<script language=javascript>searchLocation()</script>";

 

how i implement this code.will you explain more detail.

thanks

 

just call in php:

<?php echo '<script> function_name(); </script>'; ?>

PHP is serverside and is compiled before any HTML is loaded, therefor you must make php echo this so when the page is loaded in the browser it calls the JS function.

Or you can actually just call it at the bottom of the page like wigwambam said.
