There is not currently any support for evaluating specific code blocks
on buffer open.  You could move your elisp code into a
buffer-local-variable block (which can house functions) and which are
evaluated when buffers are opened.  I believe all changes made in such
blocks are buffer local, so that may be your best bet.

See [[info:elisp#File%20Local%20Variables][info:elisp#File Local Variables]]
or  http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FileLocalVariables
