Bob, you could use jquery to read the javascript file contents and then output the file code surrounded by script tags - I think that is what you are trying to do? See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6269159/read-from-textfile-on-server-usin g-jquery this just shows the read there may be another better way but this springs to mind first off ;) Shout again if you need further clarification Simon -----Original Message----- From: thelist-bounces at lists.evolt.org [mailto:thelist-bounces at lists.evolt.org] On Behalf Of Bob Meetin Sent: 09 August 2012 14:23 To: thelist at lists.evolt.org Subject: [thelist] javascript / document.write / include javascript Is there a way to include a javascript document, i.e. javascript.js, within a page if you are using javascript to define some matching criteria? <script type="text/javascript"> if( matches_some_mobile_criteria ) { document.write("<script type='text/javascript; src='javascript.js'></script>"); } </script> If I do it as above it outputs document.write, script type=, etc, rather than including the .js file.
