Example

The following example shows how you can use this method with an HTML Web resource (new_myWebResource.htm).

First, add the following code in your HTML web resource:

// This script should be in the HTML web resource.
function doStuff() {
    // Add desired script logic that executes on form load.
}

Next, add the following code in the form OnLoad event handler:

// This should be in a script loaded on the form. 
// form_onload is a handler for the form onload event.
function form_onload(executionContext) {
    var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
    var wrControl = formContext.getControl("WebResource_CustomName");
    if (wrControl) {
        wrControl.getContentWindow().then(
            function (contentWindow) {
                contentWindow.doStuff();
            }
        )
    }
}

Similar initialization code should be added to a TabStateChange event handler if such initialization is necessary. Any initialization code should be idempotent if it's reused. For performance reasons, the form might destroy and reinitialize the control during tab navigation.
