Functions in a .js file

Hello everyone,

I was wondering how i could call a function in a .js file from my html document. the call is going to come from a onchange event.

Any help will be appreciated.

It does not work any differently than calling JS functions that are in the page. You will need to have a script tag on the page pointing to the remote .JS file so the page knows to load the file.

 <script src="http://blahblah.com/scripts/someFile.js" language="javascript"   type="text/javascript"></script>
