In Javascript, is it possible to pass a variable into [removed] “src” parameter?

Question

Is it possible in Javascript to pass a variable through the src parameter? ie.

Answer 1

I use the following pattern to convert query variables from to an object containing key:value pairs. Code is placed at the top of script.js:

    var getVars = {};
    
    (function(){
        var scripts, currentScript, queryString;

        scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');
        currentScript = scripts[ scripts.length - 1 ];
        queryString = currentScript.getAttribute('src').split("?").pop().split('&');
        for(var i=0;i

This probably won't work with deferred / asynchronously added script elements, as it relies on immediate code execution.
