detect if image/page has loaded

[daxiang28]

hi i was wondering how i can detect if a page had finished loading before a script runs? i'm using the following code, but it runs before the main image even loads. it's for an image slide show.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
setTimeout("launch()",8000);
function launch(){
location.href = "nextpage.htm";
}
</SCRIPT>

thanks,
steve

<img alt="[Bettie Page with a whip.]" onload="launch()" src="http://www.bettiepage.com/images/photos/whip/whip7_a.jpg">

thanks charles.

how can i get the setTimeout to work with it? it seems to bypass it. i would like thei mage to load, wait 8 seconds, and then change to the next page.

thanks,
steve

I think that should do it:

<img alt="[Bettie Page with a whip.]" onload="setTimeout('launch()',8000)" src="http://www.bettiepage.com/images/photos/whip/whip7_a.jpg">
