Problem with scrollTop and scrollLeft in onload event

[yoavr]

I can't set the scrollTop and scrollLeft in a onload event..
My JS code is something like:

function abc() {
document.getElementById('somediv').scrollTop = document.getElementById('somediv').scrollHeight;
document.getElementById('somediv').scrollLeft = document.getElementById('somediv').scrollWidth;
}

and this function is called in "body onload" event (the "somediv" has scrollbars with overflow:auto; style).
If I change the event from "onload" to some "onclick" event, it's work.

What can I do?

Everything I tried works with that code. I used FF3.6 and IE7.

Perhaps you need to post a stripped-down test HTML page.

Make sure the event isn't being fired before the page has finished loading. You could embed the JS at the bottom of the page, but check the difference between onload and DOMContentLoaded
