Abstract
A data processing system and methodology simulate “include” function in the JavaScript programming language. The include function is utilized to more efficiently use a set of instructions that are repeated during execution of a program. By setting those instructions in a single file that is then called through the use of a JavaScript subroutine calling protocol, sets of instructions may be repeatedly accessed and executed in a manner that simulates the include function provided by other programming languages.
