Your question is not clear. A div is an HTML element, which is not something that can "call" a function. If it's really important that you run something after the div is present, just put the JS call somewhere after the div in the HTML. — , Oct 31 '14 at 03:52

You can't call onload this way. w3schools list where no-load is applicable You must separate the function call from the div.

See this answer How to add onload event to a div element?
