run javascript from separate file

In order to run javascript from a separate file:

1. Cut the script between your script tags and save it as a separate file with the .js extension.
2. Then use the src tag to give the file's location

In the example below I have called my file datafile.js

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