How do keep 3 onload functions from executing at once? I want to execute them sequentially...when one completes execution I want to begin execution of the next one?.

Well, that is what it does here. As each onload function listed in the script is encountered, it is executed. Then, it moves on to the next one.

Using the code

addLoadEvent(nameOfSomeFunctionToRunOnPageLoad);
addLoadEvent(function() {
functionHere();
});
That bit at the end seems to imply to my inexperienced mind that I should enter something here.

Not quite sure what to do. Can you help?

Sure, you would want to enter the name of the function to load, e.g.,

Use this one:
addLoadEvent(yourFunction);

or this one:

addLoadEvent(function() {
yourFunctionHere();
});

Do you write JavaScripts?
If you do, why not submit them to us?
