Hi gio,
Try
Event.observe(window, 'load', function() {
computeTotalForTable('cities');
});
Because the way you write the function, the computeTotalForTable is
executed at initialization time of the Event.observe, so before the
window is loaded.
As it is said in the doc, you should provide an handler function, so
you could also have done this way:
Event.observe(window,'load',computeTotalForTable);
