Javascriot *.js files not working for me. Need help

Since I have retired and became disabled, I've started sharpening my
programming skills again in Javascript. To date, I have had no problems
in writing Javascript inline code. The use of external files (*.js) has
bombed. Viewing the Web access_log indicated nothing it accessed from
the .js file.

My .js file is a generated file, containing just a few lines like:
<img src="Embossed-1.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
<img src="Embossed-6.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
<img src="Embossed-5.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
<img src="Embossed-4.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
<img src="Embossed-4.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
<img src="Embossed-7.png" width=30 height=35 alt="0" />
I've also tried writing a function that called "document.write", but no
difference. Here is an excerpt from my Web page calling my .js file:
<br>
<script type="text/javascript" src=./number.js></SCRIPT>
<br>

I think I need a refresher on External JaveScript Files. Can someone help?

Another day ......

I have changed my numbers.js file too be:
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function putnums() {
document.write('<img src="Embossed-1.png" width=30 height=35 />');
document.write('<img src="Embossed-6.png" width=30 height=35 />');
document.write('<img src="Embossed-5.png" width=30 height=35 />');
document.write('<img src="Embossed-4.png" width=30 height=35 />');
document.write('<img src="Embossed-4.png" width=30 height=35 />');
document.write('<img src="Embossed-7.png" width=30 height=35 />');
}
putnums();

</SCRIPT>


Can anyone figure what is wrong with this code? Is the name of a file
on the <SCRIPT...SRC=" "> work like an included file in C language.

Still can't get my .js file to work! Currently:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="Javascript">
<!--
function putnums() {
document.close()
document.open();
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-1.png\" width=30 height=35

");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-6.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-5.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-4.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-4.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-7.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.close()

return()
}
putnums();

// -->
</SCRIPT>

and the following Console Error message:

XML cannot be the whole program
http://pmcferrin.homedns.org/......number.js
</SCRIPT>

WHAT IS WRONG!!



<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="Javascript">
<!--
function putnums() {
document.close()
document.open();
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-1.png\" width=30 height=35

");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-6.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-5.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-4.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-4.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.write("<img src=\"Embossed-7.png\" width=30 height=35
");
document.close()

return()
}
putnums();

// -->
</SCRIPT>
