Call actionFunction on page load

Hi,

 

I want to call an actionFunction upon page load and I'm not sure how to do it. The <page> tag has an action attribute but that's only for calling controller methods.

 

Any help is appreciated!

I solved it by using an actionPoller to call my actionFunction.

ActionFunction also allows you to call controller methods, so these are basicaly the same thing.

Thanks. In my particular actionFunction I am making a recursive call to a controller method (using the oncomplete attribute) and I cannot duplicate this behaviour in my controller without it breaking. That aside my actionFunction calls some javaScript code. That's why I want to call the actionFunction upon page load. Is there a way to do this?
