This is so basic that I'd rather not ask but I've searched the forums and have only found more complex javascripting questions.  I'd like to create a popup window that opens when the page launches.  The way that I previously got this to work was like this:

<body onload=" pop();">
<Script>
function pop() {
myPopupWin = window.open('http://MySite.com/MyPopupPage','mywin','height=400,width=550,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');
myPopupWin.moveTo(300, 300);
}
</script>
</body>

I'm new to DNN and not sure how to put this javascript code in a body tag on DNN like I used to do.  There may be another/better way to do this type of javascripting in DNN and I would appreciate the direction.

Hi, TSD-

Adding JavaScript in DNN can get hairy since it's not always apparent which modules will load and execute scripts.  The most reliable approach is to insure that your scripts wait until everything is loaded before executing.  This is what you're already trying to do with your "body onload" event.

For DNN, instead of trying to modify the dynamically-generated BODY tag, I've found that using JavaScript closure works just as well and can be utilized anywhere on a DNN page without regard to other modules/content.

See this post for an explanation and a short example of adding page load events using closure:
