hey all,

external javascript that's in the same application direcory?
If so, can someone please show me the syntax?

Put a reference to the .js file in the page HTML. Example:

<script type="text/javascript" src="myscript.js"></script>

Then just use Page.RegisterStartupScript or whatever means you want to add a
script to the page that calls a function or uses data in the external
JavaScript.

JavaScript is client-side. The only place you're going to be running it is
on the client. So, my answer is the best you're going to get: You can add a
script to the client-side HTML on the server, and run it when the page gets
back to the client.
