How to make onclick automatically through onload function

So I have the following function which is being called when I click a button. Here is the code:

<a href="#" role="button" onClick="myFunction('parameter')">

How can I call this function as soon as page is loaded? I tried onLoad function but doesn't seem to work.

There are multiple options for onload event.

In HTML

<body onload="myFunction('parameter')">

In Javascript

window.onload=function(){
myFunction('parameter');
};

In JQuery

$(document).ready(function(){
      myFunction('parameter');
});

Put this anywhere on your page, preferably in the <head>

<script type="text/javascript">    
$(function() {
    myFunction('parameter');
});
</script>

See https://stackoverflow.com/a/7911809/584192 for more ways of doing it via jQuery.
