I am populating a Dojo Combobox dropdown with values from JSON.
The code below works just fine (inline JSON).....

```
<script>
var magicvars = {
   identifier: 'name',
   label: 'name',
   items: [
   {name: "ZCCN_NO_1", label: "<img width='16px' height='16px' src='http://localhost:3000/static/images/eight_ball_16x16.png'/>ACCN_NO_1"},
   {name: "CR_Local_ID", label:"<img width='16px' height='16px' src='http://localhost:3000/static/images/eight_ball_16x16.png'/>CR_Local_ID"}
]};
</script>

<div dojoType="dojo.data.ItemFileReadStore" data="magicvars" jsId="xvarStore2"></div>

```

However when I specify an external file for the JSON, no go, which is to say that the dropdown populates.
The external file is standard.txt and looks like this...

```
{
  identifier: 'name',
  label: 'name',
  items: [
  {name: "ZCCN_NO_1", label: "<img width='16px' height='16px' src='http://localhost:3000/static/images/eight_ball_16x16.png'/>ACCN_NO_1"},
  {name: "CR_Local_ID", label:"<img width='16px' height='16px' src='http://localhost:3000/static/images/eight_ball_16x16.png'/>CR_Local_ID"}
 ]};

```

My HTML call to dojo the looks like this..

```
<div dojoType="dojo.data.ItemFileReadStore" jsId="xvarStore2" url="http://localhost:3000/static/standard.txt">
</div>

```

Inline works fine but the external call does not. Apologies if this is a remedial question but how can I read the external file and assign it to "magicvars". I just don't want to clutter up the HTML with a bunch of inline JSON.

Any advice is appreciated.
