Avoiding conflicts with share-in-memory JavaScript files
If several HTML files reference a particular JavaScript file, Dreamweaver loads the JavaScript into a central location
where the HTML files can share the same JavaScript source. These files contain the following line:
//SHARE-IN-MEMORY=true
If a JavaScript file has the directive and an HTML file references it (by using the tag with
SHARE-IN-MEMORY SCRIPT
the attribute), Dreamweaver loads the JavaScript into a memory location where the code is implicitly included
SRC
in all HTML files thereafter.
Note: Because JavaScript files that are loaded into this central location share memory, the files cannot duplicate any
declarations. If a share-in-memory file defines a variable or function and any other JavaScript file defines the same
variable or function, a name conflict occurs. When writing new JavaScript files, be aware of these files and their naming
conventions.
