JQuery `.load()` function not executing javascript which is in loading page

What I'm trying to do is load an external html file and have the Javascript that is embedded execute along with the html code that I had in my Loading_Page.html.

The code I'm trying to use is this:

$("#myBtn").click(function() {
  $("#myDiv").load("Loading_Page.html");
});

Loading_Page.html looks like this (simple now, but will expand once/if I get this working).It has both html and javascript, so I need to get Html page along with the javascript.

<html> 
<head>
  <title>Tracking HTML File</title>
  <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
    alert("outside the jQuery ready");
  </script>
</head>

<body>

  <div id="first_division"><img src="someimage.jpg" alt="image" /></div>
  <div id="second_division"><p>some text</p></div>
</body>

</html>

But the javascript in Loading_Page.html page is not executing along with the html code in Loading_Page Any thoughts on why the browser is ignoring the Javascript in the Loading_Page.html file?

Thanks for your help in advance!

jQuery load will just exclude that script tag from response, before it is inserted into a div.

See this question. The same problem happens there.
