This markup will never work, Wallace.
Remove all this from your page. Then select the body tag, and go through the
MODIFY | Templates > Make Attribute Editable, menu choice to add the onLoad
attribute as the target of the parameter. Specify that the parameter's
value be null as a default.
This will then create the following markup on your page -
<!-- TemplateParam name="LoadTIConnect" type="text" value="" -->
</head>
<body onLoad="@@(LoadTIConnect)@@">
which by default will evaluate to this -
<body onLoad="">
When you give the parameter a value on a child page, using MODIFY | Template
Properties, it will then appear in that onLoad attribute's value.

Steph:
The problem is that they would have to type that in de novo, as it were. It
would be especially wonderful if there were a 6th parameter type: list.
This would let you define a list of choices, e.g.,
<!-- TemplateParam name="selectThis" type="List" value="choice1, choice2,
choice3, choice4" -->
And then when you go MODIFY | Template Properties, and select this
parameter, you get a select list where you can only make a single selection.
I think this would solve that problem.
