onload not working after update to 3.6.14

I've been creating a new web page and have "onload" in the body tag, which resets all checkboxes in a form. It was working fine when I reloaded the page, while I was using Firefox 3.6.13. But then I updated to Firefox 3.6.14 yesterday or the day before, and suddenly it's not working. Other instructions in the javascript are working (resetting the color of boxes in the form) but it won't reset checkboxes to be unchecked. I have a reset button that calls the same script and it works find; it's just when I reload the page that it doesn't work. It does still work in IE8, though. I'm assuming this is a bug in the new update. Can this be fixed? Is there a workaround in the meantime?

not onLoad per se - but this isn't working either:

document.observe('dom:loaded', function() { }

great update FF. thanks. managed to screw up all the JS

I'm now seeing that other JavaScript is not working either, yet it was working before the update and it's still working in IE8. I hope the FF tech people are monitoring this forum for reports like this. This is a major problem, since it means people using this update can't use my order form. A fast fix would be very appreciated.

I just upgraded to 3.6.15. Some of the Javascript is working better, but onload is still not working properly.
