AngularJS - Window alert onload

Question

I am just using the fantastic library that is angularJS. I am trying to get a simple window alert to come up on page load. This is the code I am using:

$scope.greet = function() {
    ($window.mockWindow || $window).alert('Hello World');
  }
}

I am new to javascript generally and it seems I have made a mistake with this because it doesn't work:

Can anyone show me what it should be please? Thank you.

I guess I don't, it was left over from an example. I just want it to run on page load, so is there a way of doing that? — Jimmy

Don't forget to inject $window service:

app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope , $window) {
  $scope.greet = function() {
    ($window.mockWindow || $window).alert('Hello');
  }
});

I don't sure what you want to see with your example but this is working code:

<html ng-app>
 <div ng-controller="TodoCtrl">
    <span id="logo">Just a</span><span id="small" >PREVIEW</span>

   <button class="btn-large" ng-click="greet()">Press</button>
</div>

Controller

function TodoCtrl($scope, $window) {
  $scope.greet = function() {
  ($window.mockWindow || $window).alert('Hello');
  }
}

DEMO in Fiddle

Hope it will help you
