Dynamically loaded User Controls - same .JS file....problem

[james]

OK - I have a user control that I have written. I load it multiple
times on the same page with different data. It uses a server side
javascript file that contains some DHTML / JS. The problem appears to
be that since each instance of the control shares the same .JS file,
there appears to be collisions where one control is overwriting values
in the .JS that was set by the other control.

Is there some way to have each user control have its own instance of
the same JS file?
Any help greatly appreciated!

You must be talking about variables. Instead off allocating them statically,
create them dynamically with a "new" statement.

Do you mean in the server-side javascript file?

instead of:

var oThing;

initialize it as:

var oThing = new Object;

To clarify, what I beleive I need is for each user control (there are
two of them dynamically loaded on the page at the same time) to have
its own private instance of the .js file. Possible? Am I all turned
around the axle on this?
