not necessary. you have delayed your JavaScript code till doc load. so just call the function after that, it will work. does not matter if you call your function 1st or later try for yourself and see . note: the function call must be inside the onload function else your call will come before your function is loaded.

It ensures that Javascript works AFTER the HTML is loaded else it will produce an error not being able to find the tag you are asking for

In this case it doesn't matter where to call the function.
