Evolv won't let us add javascript functions to a form's [After Load Code] field. The following is a WORKAROUND for this limitation.
+ The anonymous function uses a variable to trigger the [OnChange] event on the form.
+ The additional line of code removes the anonymous function from the form's XML in order to avoid an XSLT error.
+ The anonymous function's curly braces are doubled on purpose to avoid an XSLT error.

- Create a variable named [on_load_code] of type {Boolean}
- Paste the following code on the [On Load Script] field of the [on_load_code] variable
- Add the code you want executed to the [On Change Script] field of the [on_load_code] variable
