I'm not too sure how compatible this might be across different browsers,
but you could use the 'for' attribute of the script tag:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body id="mybodytag">
<script for="mybodytag" event="onload">
alert('loaded');
</script>
</body>
</html>
