js function to stop another js function

Hello,

I have two JS functions: a load() function that displays a progress bar and a kill () function that stops the execution of the load once the page is loaded.
Now when another page is loaded the progress bar is not displayed , knowing that the load function is called on every page.
Any hints on where the problem might be and if there is a way to fix it.

Here is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var count=0;
function load(i) {
j = parseInt(i);
document.getElementById("progressBar").style.display = "block";
count=count+1;
if (document.all) {
document.all.btn1.value=count+'%';
document.all.progressbar.pic1.width=2*count;
}
else {
document.getElementById("pic1").width=2*count;
document.getElementById("bar").width=count+'%';
}
if (count<100) {
setTimeout('load(j)',j);
}
if(count==100) {
document.getElementById("progressBar").style.display = "none";
count=0;
}
}
function kill(){
if (document.applets[0].isActive()) {
document.getElementById("progressBar").style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}

Thank you in advance !
