Probably a newbie question :
I want to execute specific code when a form is loaded/shown
The expected onload/onshow events don’t appear to be triggered.
Example
In the below example
Form1
Button1.onclick=function(){
NSB.Print("Button1.onclick") ;
Form1.hide();
Form2.show();
}
Form1.onload=function(){
NSB.Print("Form1.onload");
}
Form1.onshow=function(){
NSB.Print("Form1.onshow");
}
Form2
Form2.onload = function() {
NSB.Print("Form2.onload");
}
Form2.onshow = function() {
NSB.Print("Form2.onshow");
}
Button2.onclick = function() {
NSB.Print("Button2.onclick");
Form2.hide();
Form1.show();
}
Generates:
When I click on button1 and button2 sequence several times

Note Form1.onshow shows when sample is started but any subsequent onload/onshow event doesn’t seem to be triggered.
What is the recommended way of achieving initialization each time a form is loaded / shown??
Any suggestion or pointer to Wiki/Reference docs would be appreciated (i.e checked but couldn’t find an answer other than the caveat that
The load event can’t be used for individual forms or controls….
which probably explains why the onload isn’t triggered.
