More Monetization Options for Your WhyPark Sites

A handy bit of Javascript: onload
As my fellow WPer's know, you can't edit the body tag of your WhyPark site. Many novice javascripters will think this means its impossible to do anything with javascript that requires the page to be fully loaded before the code is excuted. Fortunately, they're wrong.
