[thelist] External .js and ASP

Anyone know anything about this weirdness?

I currently have an ASP page that is generating a JavaScript error when
a certain function is invoked.  The error:  "line: 1, char: 1, error:
Object Expected".  Currently the ASP page gets to the JS thru a
Server.Execute that contains a <script src=""> tag.

When I take the contents of the .js file and put them in
<script></script> tags in the IncludeFile that gets .Executed, the JS
works fine.

So what is it about .Executed files that cause <script src=""> tags not
to work? 

Here's a stripped down version of how the ASP page calls the javascript:

Main ASP Page Code:
<%
Server.Execute("includes/IncludeFile.asp")
%>

Includes/IncludeFile.asp code:
<html>
<head>
	<title>Page Title</title>
	<script language="JavaScript" src="ScriptFile.js"></script>
</head>

TIA,
Tab
