Olaf, I take it that "mySettings" is a variable defined in your set.js
script, is that right?
When you load a script dynamically, the JavaScript interpreter does not halt
and wait for that script. Your code continues executing without pause,
therefore any variables defined by that script are not available yet.
You should change set.js to call a function instead of merely setting a
variable. The function it calls will be where you put the code that depends
on mySettings.
