[SOLVED] No calling a script within a script?

[cozbaldwin]

Hi there, fine people.

 

I am proficient in html & css, but lack a lot of knowledge in the programming languages.

 

I'm developing a site which should have dynamic content filling the sidebars.  I found an ajax script that when I created a DIV and named it  (for example...) "div1", it would call to fill in that DIV with content from a separate php page.  Simple... but advanced work for me.

 

Anyhow -- it's working fine -- everything shows up.... except for one thing.  On that remote php page I have another script to call on (for example...) FeedBurner to display a feed, but it doesn't show up on the parent PHP page.  What gives?  Is calling a script within a script not able to be done?  Or do you think that ajax script I have not coded properly? 

 

Here's all the code:

 

In the head of parent page, I'm calling these two files:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.hiddeninthesand.com/js/ajax.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.hiddeninthesand.com/js/ajax-dynamic-content.js"></script>

But you can view them here in text:

http://www.hiddeninthesand.com/js/ajax.txt

http://www.hiddeninthesand.com/js/ajax-dynamic-content.txt

 

Now, like I said.. it all works except when I go to call this additional script, which happens to be Feedburner, to aggregate a feed into my remote page.

<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/hitslatestfaqs?format=sigpro" type="text/javascript">

Works all by iteself on the parent page, but when i place it on the remote page being called as dynamic content.... it completely fails to show anything.

 

So I'm wondering if anyone knows why this cannot happen.  Thanks!

So, the first two files are on page 1, and then the second quote is on page 2?

 

Javascript is not parsed when it's retrieved by AJAX, so you'll either need to make it be parsed, or find a different way to do things....  (Look into Javascript eval() maybe)

This is basically what I was looking for but I couldn't seem to find this statement ever said in the places I was looking around in the web, so thanks.  Now that I know that, I'll look into other methods including what you mentioned (which I've no knowledge on whatsoever, but at least now I know where to start looking).

 

Thanks again.
