  // %        note 1: Force Javascript execution to pause until the file is loaded. Usually causes failure if the file never loads. ( Use sparingly! )
  // %        note 2: The included file does not come available until a second script block, so typically use this in the header.
  // %        note 3: Uses global: php_js to keep track of included files
