Dynamic Javascript Tag Insert – ASP.NET 2.0

A lot of JavaScript utilities need to be inserted at the bottom of the page so that the HTML elements that use them (or at least the function calls) do not generate errors. When using ASP.NET 2.0 master pages, you might want to insert the <SCRIPT> tags dynamically so...
