Jason, it looks like your "javascript page" is a complete html page, not 
just javascript. You are including that in another html page, so you 
wind up with multiple <html>, <head>, and <body> tags.

Put your javascript only (no html) in its own .js file, and reference 
that file in a <script src= > tag in the head of the main page. (Or, if 
you prefer, use php to include it between  <script></script> tags in the 
head of the page.)

Hope that helps,

John
