window.onload and setInterval()

[Andrew1985]

How can I get this to work? I want to create a function that counts down from two sections, executes a function and cuts itself off.

It seems that anywhere i put setInterval inside these functions it keeps daying that the function doesn't exist.

So basically what i'm asking is how can i get the below script to work?

Thanks!

<script type="text/javascript">
function init ()
{
function alertHello ()
{
alert('hello');
}
alertHello();
}
window.onload = init;
</script>

}

function alertHello () {
    alert('hello');
}

window.onload = init;
</script>

you want it to wait two seconds before alerting hello?

do this:

<script type="text/javascript">
function init () {
    alertHello();
}

function alertHello () {
    alert('hello');
}

window.onload = function() { setTimeout( "init()", 2000 ) };
</script>
