external js file

[simurg]

hi
how can i call/activate an external js-file in conditional case?
for example say;
if daynumber of today >10, i want js-file come into action.
i write it as follows, but not running


<script language="javascript" >
{
if (Daynumber>10) {src="archivLINES.js"}
}
</script>

(Daynumber is off course defined before)
i guess it is wrong with "scr="; what is then correct code-line?

i will be very gratefull for any help...

Don't use the decapitated (deprecated) language attribute. You can just doc write it out.


<script type="text/javascript">
if (Daynumber>10)
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="archivLINES.js"><\/script>');
</script>


You could use the DOM, but that gets a bit complicated and isn't supported well for script tags.

A better approach would be to have your function that actually does the work check this, ex:


function archive_lines(){
if (Daynumber<11)
return;
. . .

doing nothing if the value is less than 11.
