Google Analytics does it this way:

var _gat, gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www."); document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));

Answer 2

+1 A:

Think your DOM-based code is fine, but try to (a) use the absolute script URL, (b) set the script type and (c) update src after appending, this should make it working more reliably:

var head = document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.type = "text/javascript";
head.appendChild(script);
script.src = "http://host.tld/js/JSFILE.js";

Hope this helps.

EDIT

By the way, it is good idea to set up kind of callback, to make sure script was loaded before using its code. Code can look similarly to this:

// most browsers
script.onload = callback;
// IE
script.onreadystatechange = function() {
   if(this.readyState == "loaded"  || this.readyState == "complete") {
      callback();
   }
}

Here callback is literally the function to execute.

Answer 3

+4 A:

This code worked for me:

function winWriteMail2(){
    var win = open('','wininfo', 'width=400,height=300,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');
    win.document.open();
    win.document.write('<HTML><HEAD><META http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2"><LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/main.css">');
    win.document.write('</HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="#f7f3e7">');
    win.document.write('this is the body content');
    win.document.write('</BODY></HTML>');
    win.document.close();

    var h = win.document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
    var js = win.document.createElement("script");
    js.type = "text/javascript";
    js.src = "js/scriptfile.js";
    h.appendChild(js);
}

Here is what I needed to change in your code to make it work:

//From
var js = document.createElement("script");
//To
var js = win.document.createElement("script");

You need to create the script element in the same document that you are appending.
