[jQuery] $(document).ready and window.onload

[jQuery] $(document).ready and window.onload


I am moving an app to the jquery framework. There is a good deal of
script that I don't want to load until the landing page is up, and
this includes dom node creation and manipulation that I want to tie in
to the jquery event structure.
This would seem to dictate window.onload instead of $(document).ready
for this portion of the code and I suspect tying into the existing
structure might be a challenge.
Would appreciate some guidance here on working with both from anyone
with experience in this area or a reference to a resource or tutorial.
