What I have tried:

I know there exists a piece of code that does this function. I just have not found it yet.

It is just a generic term that refers to a JavaScript object which can be any HTML element. So it depends. Let borrow the example from Tryit Editor v3.3[^]

document.getElementById("myFrame").onload = function() {myFunction()};

The object refers to the iframe element in the html document identified by id="myFrame". In JavaScript, this is selected via

document.getElementById("myFrame")

. The onload event will be triggered when the object, that is the iframe in this case, has been loaded.
