It is recommended that you create a separate JavaScript (js)
file for implementing the widget UI interaction and other operations. This
increases clarity of the code and enables reuse of the code in other widgets.
A widget can have as many JavaScript files as needed.
There are two ways to use an external JavaScript file through the widget's main HTML file:
Specifying a JavaScript file that is included in the widget package
Use the <script> tag as follows:
<script type='text/JavaScript' src='JavaScript.js'></script>
Specifying a JavaScript file that is stored in a remote location
In this case, the JavaScript file is not included in the widget package.
Specify the full URL of the JavaScript source in the src attribute
of the script tag as follows:
<script type='text/JavaScript' src='http://www.widget.server/JavaScript.js'></script>
Note: When linking to external JavaScript files in a remote location, specify
the AllowNetworkAccess key in the info.plist file as true to allow the widget to connect to the network.
