I just recently redid my webpage with both external and internal scripts.  
My external script contains the functions I use, and the internal is for 
things like preloading images.  So far, I haven't had any problems with it 
in IE or NN.

>Unless things have changed, I was taught this :

>If the browser is unable to fetch the external script it will
>execute any embedded script; otherwise it will ignore the
>embedded script. An example follows:
><SCRIPT SRC="foo.js">
><!--
>// embedded script, only executed if foo.js is unavailable
>// -->
></SCRIPT>

>So, is this no longer true?
>If so then I will remove it from my code.
