including a javascript file in another.. HOW!?!?

broli85

how do you include a javascript file A in another javascript file B inorder to be able to use the functions in A from B.

i thought the code in javascript file B would be like this...

<script src="chrome://followmylink/contents/fileA.js">

...code in B where i will be using the functions from B ...

</script>

Also is there a way how you would define a class?

is it like this:

var ClassA = new Object {
//..attributes..
this.attr1 = "";
}

//functions
ClassA.method1 = function() {
//.....code......
}

If so how should I call it from file A if I put it in file B

Thanks very much!!!

 var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];

var script = document.createElement('script');

script.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');

script.setAttribute('src',nameOfFile);

head.appendChild(script);

or using document.write (and escaping the ending script tag).

The code in the B file goes out side fo the script tag from the A file. See below.

Browsers may close the script on encountering "</script> within the script, so it should be escaped, e.g. <\/script>.
