Problems with reading .JS file

Hi guys!

I have problem with loading external .JS file.

The file is loaded sometimes and sometimes not. P.e after refreshing the site the script sometimes works.

1st part:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">

var SCT_TICKER_FONT_COLOR="#000000";
var SCT_TICKER_BG_COLOR="#FF0000";
var SCT_TICKER_LINK_COLOR="#FFFF00";
var SCT_TICKER_VLINK_COLOR="#FFFF99";
var SCT_TICKER_HOVER_COLOR="#000000";
var SCT_TICKER_FONT="Arial";
var SCT_TICKER_RESSORT="";

var SCT_TICKER_HOVER_UNDERLINE="underline";
var SCT_TICKER_LINK_UNDERLINE="none";
var SCT_TICKER_FONTBOLD="bold";
var SCT_TICKER_WIDTH=650;
var SCT_TICKER_HEIGHT=20;
var SCT_TICKER_FONT_SIZE=9;
var SCT_TICKER_SPEED=8;
var SCT_TICKER_HOVER_STOP=1;
var SCT_TICKER_TRANSPARENT=0;
var SCT_TICKER_OFFSET=325;
</script>

2nd part

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript" SRC="http://www.sportal.de/de/content/js/dlcticker.js"> </script>



What should I do in order to display it always.

This question is in the wrong area it should have been posted to
Clientside: HTML javascript etc.

If you include the javascript from a file you must not use the <script> and </script> tags. Just remove them from the .js file!

Hello,

I am having the same problem.. I am trying to load an external .js file in the <script> tag, and then trying to call a function inside it using "onload" in the Body tag..

Apparently the script doesnt load quickly enough for the "onload" function to be able to call it! How do I fix this? Should I make some sort of delay script?

Thanks,

Edwardo

As ngibsonau said, this should be posted to the HTML/Javascript/CSS forum.
