not possible

you must pass the text "to read" in a variable

then you can try to get the file

example

file to read : 'txt_1.js'
var t = 'Hello World';

reading :
<button onclick="newText('txt_1.js'); alert(t);">read 1</button>



function newText(url) {
var s = document.createElement('SCRIPT');
s.src = url;
document.body.appendChild(s);
}

not sure that works with IE

how to read from a file in the script ?

Can you clarify what you're trying to do? The security policy of
browsers make it difficult if not impossible to read a file from the
user's local machine. But server-side scripts, and some browser
techniques can allow for it. Moreover, there are easy ways to read
from URLs on the same domain as a web page. Those URLs often map to
server-side files.

So what is it you're after?
