Including Javascript files from script

[Christopher Benson-Manica]

I'm betting that this is impossible, but I'm wondering if a script can
by some mechanism "include" another script source file, perhaps in a
manner analagous to C's #include directive. One (probably bad) idea
that came to mind is writing appropriate <script> tags to the document
as needed. Is that the only option?

Search this archives. This has been covered before.

See this example for an alternative. DOM browsers only.

"analogous".

document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="include2.js"></script>')
document.write(TestCounter)

The value of TestCounter set in local file include2.js was written.

On the Web, it will probably be necessary to wait until the file has been
read (???).
