add .js file as source in html file from server

I have an HTML file on my server, and a Javascript file on the same server. I want it so that when I load the HTML file, it will the reference of .js file placed on the server.

I tried this way:

<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript src="...server side path...."></script>
    </head>
</html>

but it is not working. Can any one tell me how I can do this?! I attached the code

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:form="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/FormFaces/formfaces.js"></script>
<form:model>
<form:instance>
    <data xmlns="">
<textbox1></textbox1>
<textbox2></textbox2>
<textbox3></textbox3>
    </data>
</form:instance>
</form:model>
</head>


<body>
<table><tr><td><form:input ref="textbox1">
<form:label>TextBox1</form:label>
</form:input>
</td><td><form:input ref="textbox2">
<form:label>TextBox2</form:label>
</form:input>
</td></tr><tr><td><form:input ref="textbox3">
<form:label>TextBox3</form:label>
</form:input>
</td><td></td></tr>
</table></body>
</html>

` I want the formfaces.js file to be included in my Text.html file. But when i run the text.html file through my local server in a browser, it doesnot load the formfaces.js file. IF i run that file manually , all works fine

Answer

Javascript files are read and executed on the client.

You need to use a client-side path; the browser will send an HTTP request to that URL.
