Hi Ty, As far as I understand, the onload handler (which is what the _IG_RegisterOnloadHandler() should be using as far as I understand) is executed only after the global scope Javascript has been executed. Therefore, this problem should not happen.
I am using global variables initialized in the global scope for easy to modify settings, just as you have shown in your example here, and I have not faced production issues. It would be interesting to hear from others as well on this. Is there a Javascript expert who could provide some feedback how this should work, per spec?

Is this possible? If so, how can I prevent this?
