RE: [Dynapi-Help] including other files in a package

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. I realise its not a great place to put the file but
I just wanted to get it working first, then I can move the file. I added the
line you suggested.
Slider = {}; // used by dynapi.library
It doesn't seem to make any difference. I added an alert at the top of the
page, but no alert gets called , could suggest that the file isnt even
getting added. I can give you a link to the code can I send to you
personally I don't really want to share with the world.
