Combo box of a servlet accessing a function in Javascript

[SJ Rao]

1) OnChange of combo box, I am trying to call a function which is in "javascript", .js file.
2) I've included the .js file in the script tag in response object of the servlet.
3) But when i click on the combo box, I get an error saying "object expected".
Can you please let me know what the error could be.
Thanks in advance.
I've also included a simple sample here
SERVLET FILE
public void doGet (HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException
{
sysout.println("<script language=\"javascript \" src=\"fFirstname.js\">");
sysout.println("</script>");
sysout.println("<td> <select id=cmbFirstname name=cmbFirstname onChange=\"fFirstname()\">");
}
JavaScript file - fFirstname.js
function fFirstname()
{
alert("hello");
}

Hi,
"Object expected" is an error which arises bcs of the foll. possible reasons:
- The function u are calling is not reachable.
- You have mispelled the function name(function name is case-sensitive)
- You are trying to call a function which does not exist

Try and check the path of the .js file in first case.

Hi Kirtikumar,
Thanks a lot for your immediate response.
I got the solution from one of my friends.
1) There was a error as there was a space after javascript.
sysout.println("<script language=\"javascript \" src=\"fFirstname.js\">")
2) And I had to put the javascript file in the defaultwebapp folder or i had to add whatever path i wanted after defaultwebapp like

sysout.println("<script language=\"javascript\" src=\"phonebook/javascripts/fFirstname.js\">");
I changed this & its working fine.
