The tried and tested approach is simple IF statements. I suppose one
could just as easily capture the INI values in a way to permit direct
SwitchTo function calls. As you pointed out, the structure of the IE
script files are important.
I have my setup for the FS_IE code to be used in the main JSS file. I
have a few batch files that automate the setup of the structure e.g.
copying FS shipping files over, renaming them, etc. This way my code
can be refreshed for a newly installed version of JAWS by running the
batch file.
It sounds like now however, FS has made it even easier to roll custom
and default code together. I'll need to check into that further.
