I have some Javascript that I use for rotating banner ads on web pages. I
would like to modularize this so that it can be simply "included" on any
page that I want to use the ads on.

So, I've created a separate page with nothing but the code required to load
& rotate the ads. Works great.

But if I include it using the FP2000 web component for including a page, it
doesn't work; it is as though the script isn't running at all. The script
is started with an "onLoad" handler in <body> of the page.

I know this is probably too vague, but if anyone can provide help I'll
appreciate it.

Thx..

David
 
To use the FP Include Page component, all content that is to be included in other page, must be
inserted in the Include Page between the <body>..content..</body> tags. Content in the head section
or the actual opening <body> tag will not be included.

You could also look at using a external .js file for the script, however you will then need to add a
link to all page in the head section to call the external .js file.

If you mean you want to include an external script file
you need to add it like

<script language = "javascript src="../scripts/yourscript.js">

in the <head> section

You can't use the include component or SSL for 'including scripts'.
 
Both the FP Include Page component and SSI can be use to include scripts in other pages.
