An HTML event handler can consist of an entire script, but normally holds only one or two statements:

<BODY onLoad="foo1(); foo2();">

If you set an event handler in your script, it must be associated with a function reference. Therefore, it can only call one function:

window.onload = foo;

You can solve this issue by writing a simple function that calls other functions:

function foo() {
  foo1();
  foo2();
}
