Comments:
I found this article looking for a way to handle the case when a <SCRIPT src="file"> tag cannot find the specified file.
Your article says the if the file is not found then javascript placed inside the <SCRIPT></SCRIPT> tags will be executed.
This is not true for any Netscape browser I have tested. (3-4.72)
If the file cannot be found the browser will return a 404 error.
Also netscape will not allow javascript to print a <SCRIPT> tag from within another <SCRIPT> tag.
ie <SCRIPT>document.write("<SCRIPT>");

If you do know how to solve these problems I'd appreciate an email explaining how to do so. Thanks.
