Thank you very much. I'm sure this will give me the the right solution.

I've tried your example and that works fine when the JS is in the Xara File.
I have now tried to change the concept and put the JS-file in index_htm_files which is easier for me for maintenance.
However this is not working.

This is what I've done:

Header page properties:

<script src="index_htm_files/gmail.js">
</script>

Object link properties:

javascript: alert(window.location.href='https://mail.google.com/mail/u/' + gmail_blue + '/#inbox');
javascript: alert(window.location.href='https://mail.google.com/mail/u/' + gmail_green + '/#inbox');

gmail.js in index_htm_files:

<script
var gmail_green = 5;
var gmail_blue = 3;>
</script>

I've put my Xara-testproject in a RAR-file but I could'nt find how to attach it.

Almost there Frank.

A referenced JS file does not need the SCRIPT tags as it knows it is JavaScript.
The file is just:

var gmail_green = 5;
var gmail_blue = 3;

It might still have worked if you had copied what I had used:
<script>
var gmail_green = 5;
var gmail_blue = 3;
</script> - the closing angle bracket was in the wrong place.

When you fin it all works, you can remove the alert() part of the Link:
javascript: window.location.href='https://mail.google.com/mail/u/' + gmail_blue + '/#inbox';
