How can I use a variable to call a .js file Posted by jaycss on 22 Oct 2001 at 10:28 AM

I need some help, here.
I need to call this .js file automatically,
not with an onClick function.
How can I call a .js file in a situation like the following:
----------------------------------
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var cnt = "2";
</SCRIPT>
<script language="JavaScript" src=cnt+"1.js"></script>
----------------------------------
This call should load a .js file named "21.js".
I have tried all kinds of stuff. Now my mind is mush.
Please help, if you can.

I believe all you should have to do is the following:

<head>

</head>

And 21.js includes:

<script language="JavaScript">
alert("Hello there!");
</script>

Remember 21.js must be in the same directory as your calling file. Otherwise use the following:

Thanks for the effort. This has all got to be dynamic. By that I mean, not HARD CODED.

This how to do it. I even got it to loop thru a 'for' loop and load 4 different .js files. It will read the following files:
('11.js' & '21.js' & '31.js' & '41.js')
