Help a newb- rehosting codes?

[Dyr]

What I was aiming to do is host some codes I use on my proboards site (with coders permission) on another website so that there is much less in the headers/footers and, once everyone has these in their cookies, the site will run slightly faster. First off, how would I go about this, if it's even recommended? I've heard of Google Code, and sites such as this for hosting open-source codes. However, where would I go to simply rehost something for private use? Would using a small portion of a hosts' FTP to upload the codes work? Just really unsure where to start, or if this will even make much of a difference speed-wise.

example: pb.proscripts.co.uk/uploads/CFHeader.js

so then I can just put <script src=""> in to my website?

The web page loads JS first, it might be a good idea, and it would run faster. Plus you wouldn't have a cluttered H/F.

You can try here: www.yourjavascript.com/ Never used them as I have my own host as my own.

But in the past I have done your idea and it does normally load faster, most of the time really.

To answer your last question, yes, you just link the script with a src.

Also to nit-pick, the external JS files will be stored in the user's cache (assuming they don't clear or disable their cache), and will run faster for that reason. For the most part, speed shouldn't be an issue with small codes, but extremely large codes will see a difference.

Even doing a style sheet would also help out as well. The same code for js will work for the .css file.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="URL.css" />

Is most commonly used for CSS.
