I think you can use document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="somefile.js"></script>') when the page is loading.

We tried this already, but Microsoft Explorer gives us a syntax error saying that it does not know anything about the functions we are trying to call in the other .js file. What we are trying to do is two things, (1) fix some broken code by replacing it with the functions in the second .js file; (2) keep these functions separate so that they can be called from other files. Any suggestions???

You can include two <script type="text/javascript" src="somefile.js"></script> in the HTML. One for each .js file.
