My experience has been to move as much code as possible into .js files

the browser. However, by the nature of using velocity to generate
javascript code, isn't it dynamic? I don't think there is an easy answer
to your question.
Could you create a Javascript screen as we have seen others creating
dynamic charts and linking to them in that manner, I would think maybe you
can create a Javascript screen and have your code generated there as you
call it from within the main .vm you are currently working on.
This still doesn't seem to have much benefit other than seperating the
location of the code from the screen.

Hi. I've been using turbine for a while and i've been using velocity for
generating html and javascript code inside .vm files, but now I'd like
to take the javascript code out to its own .js file. That will make my
pages smaller, but I can't use the velocity template engine inside .js
files. Is there some way to not lose this functionality when working
with external js files? How do you deal with this?
Thanks.

You've pointed something important, if the js code has to be regenerated
there's no improvement other than having separate files. The js code
should be static, but then I'd need to pass dinamically created
collections of objects to the javascript functions to do their work.
What I'd like to know is easy ways to do this or alternative ones with
the same effect. For example, I need to pass a list of java objects
generated by velocity to the javascript functions so that the js
functions can work with them without having to use velocity to replicate
the js code.
Thanks for your ideas.
