Hello again!

 

Im not that familar with JS, I want to start by optimizing my site from tips from another post on this forum.

 

I have a big chuck of text on my site which calls the time and date in JS,I want to tidy this up - how would I call this with an include file from JS?

 

Your help if greatly appreciated as always!

Not sure what you're asking. You want to get the time and date in JS? Or you want to fetch text from a file in JS?

do you mean like how a css file is included in the head?

 

if yes then you would place the script in a .js file and then use this in the head:

<script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"></script>

 

 

 

 

But if you mean like a php include file because your JS is in the body, then that is done the same way as any php include file would be created and you just need to place the script into a different document and then use:

 

<?php include("js_thing.php"); ?>

 

In your HTML file

 

Well at least I would imagine that it would be as JS is client side scripting so the browsers would read it once the serverside php script had placed it into the HTML....never tried it but I can't see a reason for this not to work

Sorry should have been more clear tt, Thanks dizi thats what I was after!

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"></script>

 

cheers

oh

hehe As usual my brain tries to make something simple complicated.
