Today, I'm going to talk about how you can use JavaScript to dynamically change the src of a script tag.

For this, we have a page with three buttons, Button 1, Button 2 and Button 3. When each button is clicked, we want it to call different scripts. When Button 1 is clicked, we'll run src1.js, when Button 2 is clicked, we'll run src2.js and when Button 3 is clicked, we'll run src3.js

<script id="myScript"></script> <!--This will hold our current active script -->
<button onclick="changeSrc('src1')">Button 1</button>
<button onclick="changeSrc('src2')">Button 2</button>
<button onclick="changeSrc('src3')">Button 3</button>

Now let's define our changeSrc() function in JavaScript so that it updates the src attribute of our #myScript element accordingly.

<script>
function changeSrc(e){ 
  let myScript = document.getElementById("myScript");   
  switch (e) { 
    case "src1":  myScript.setAttribute("src","/js/src1.js");        
    break;        
    case "src2":  myScript.setAttribute("src","/js/src2.js") ;          
    break;  
    case "src3":  myScript.setAttribute("src","/js/src3.js") ;          
    break;  
  } 
  console.log(myScript.src)
}   
</script>
