load-(page_hook) action-hook . WP 2.1.0

Fires before a particular screen is loaded.

The load-* hook fires in a number of contexts. This hook is for plugin screens where a callback is provided when the screen is registered.

The dynamic portion of the hook name, $page_hook, refers to a mixture of plugin page information including:

1. The page type. If the plugin page is registered as a submenu page, such as for Settings, the page type would be 'settings'. Otherwise the type is 'toplevel'.
2. A separator of '_page_'.
3. The plugin basename minus the file extension.

Together, the three parts form the $page_hook. Citing the example above, the hook name used would be 'load-settings_page_pluginbasename'.

Usage

add_action( 'load-(page_hook)', 'action_function_name_6442' );
function action_function_name_6442(){
	// action...
}
