Include file

[John Smith]

I'm having the folowing problem:

I'm getting an Array from an external source, the data in the array depents
on the get variables.
These get variables should be decided by the browser, after there decided I
can created the adres to get the file with the JavaScript Array.
How do I include this file???

Basicaly what I want in the script is something like:
include(http://the.source.com/javascript/arr...tart=a&end=g);

Does array.php produce valid js code? Then it's sufficient to include the
file as follows:

<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://the.source.com/javascript/array.php?start =a&end=g"></script>

And then access the defined variables as you would when they where local.

Yes, it produce valid js code,
but the problem is that another script decides the values of a and g
array.php?start =a&end=g

The you can write the tag dynamically:

var start = 'something';
var end = 'something';

document.write(
'<script type="text/javascript" ',
'src="http://the.source.com/javascript/array.php',
'?start=', start, '&end=', end, '">',
'<\/script>'
);

No, unless you use the defer attribute in the script tag, the browser will
wait for the remote file to finish loading before it continues parsing the
page.
