I have the following problem:
<body>
<script>
function myfunction(y) {
alert(y);
}
var x = "1";
myfunction(x);
</script>
</body>
This script gives me the desired result: 1 However, the script is executed in my code only with document.body.onload:
<body>
<script>
document.body.onload = function myfunction(y) {
alert(y);
}
var x = "1";
myfunction(x);
</script>
</body>
But in this case the result is not 1, but [object Event]. What do I have to do to get 1 as result?

I’m not sure if this is what you mean:
function myfunction(y) {
alert(y);
}
document.body.onload = function() {
var x = "1";
myfunction(x);
}
Basically, if you set onload as you function which takes a parameter – the argument will be event itself, not the value you tried to provide to it
