[Javascript] Passing data

[BEKIM BACAJ]

Hi, Steve!
The problem to know what is you're aim here
What do you wan't to do exactly?
Yes you can put anything in a .txt file. But how do you load it, and what type of data do you need.
JS has a FileSysObject that can read files, and also write to files.
The split is a command used in strings, why do you need it for?
Be more specific!
Regards

I am not familiar with Split() but I assume that it is some type of string
parser. If so the problem I am trying to figure out is how do I pass the
data? If I have a SCRIPT in a HTML file how do I include the code or can I
just put it in a .txt file and read it. Does js even have a Read File
operation?

I need to get a good reference book.

Thanks

If you used ASCII and kept your key=value pairs it would make parsing it out
on the client pretty simple with split().

Just a thought,
