Running JS Functions from window.onload

[wyclef]

I'm trying to run these two functions onload and don't want the onload command in the body tag and am wondering if the way I set it up at the bottom is correct. It works fine but i'm not sure it's the right way.

rollMenu = function(menu) {
var getEls = document.getElementById(menu).getElementsByTagName ('LI');
var getAgn = getEls;

for (var i=0; i<getEls.length; i++) {
getEls[i].onmouseover=function() {
for (var x=0; x<getAgn.length; x++) {
getAgn[x].className=getAgn[x].className.replace('roll', '');
}
this.className+=' roll';
}
}
}

function styleAbbr() {
var oldBodyText, newBodyText, reg
if (isIE) {
oldBodyText = document.body.innerHTML;
reg = /<ABBR([^>]*)>([^<]*)<\/ABBR>/g;
newBodyText = oldBodyText.replace(reg, '<ABBR $1><SPAN class=\"abbr\" $1>$2</SPAN></ABBR>');
document.body.innerHTML = newBodyText;
}
}

window.onload = function() {
styleAbbr()
rollMenu('menu')
};

isIE = (document.all) ? true:false;

instead of window.onLoad = funtion () { }

I would define a function that calls your two functions normally,

and then call that in your .onLoad

init = function () {
styleAbbr()
rollMenu('menu')
}

window.onLoad = init;
