auto loading an external js

I need to load an external js from an html page.

Could someone help please, I've so many different ways found on the web and none works for me.

I think this is what you are looking for. Save your javascript in a .js file, without the beginning and end <script> tags:

Code: Select all: <script language="JavaScript" src="filename.js"></script>

Yes, that is one of the things I tried and it didn't work.

I'm thinking now that there maybe something wrong with the js file.

On the page
http://webpages.charter.net/wag/Javscri ... script.htm
the file containing the external script is loaded properly.

The question is:
What do you want to do with the script?

You might want to change your onload function in your body to:
onload="myJSFunction()"

The js file is supposed to be a calendar.

I added this...
<body onload="myJSFunction()">

Still nothing happens.

myJSFunction() is just a variable for whatever function you want to call.
Stands for "My JavaScript Function"

cheers!

Guess your having fun dangling the cheese in front of my face but you did give me enough info to figure it out. It works now, thanks.

Sorry bout that, but I just didn't look at what the functions in your js-file do and which one you want to call.

Have fun with your calender. Seems to be working well now.

cheers!
