Appending an External JavaScript File.
12.27.2009
This basic bit of JavaScript will allow you to dynamically append an external JavaScript file to an HTML document.
var theScript = document.createElement('script');
theScript.type = 'text/javascript';
theScript.src = "da_script.js";
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(theScript);
First, we prepare a new object using createElement(). Then, we append the new object to the end of the first (and, hopefully, only) head element in the document.
