[Javascript] Function scope question

[David T. Lovering]

I hope I am not missing part of this thread -- some of my email got eaten by my ISP...

About the only sticking point I can see is that you may need to "include" the file with the function definitions into the second file in order to satisfy the function references. I usually put all my "common" JavaScript functions into a single common.js
file, and then include it in BOTH files at the start within the header block.  However, that is only my personal preference and isn't universally necessary.
