syntaxhighlighter -- insert link to file instead of pasting snippet

Question

Is there any way to insert a link to a file containing source code, instead of pasting the code directly into the webpage to achieve syntax highlighting? (With the "ability to place virtually anything inside the CDATA without having to escape anything . . .")

<pre class="brush: js">

/home/lawlist/archives/init.el

</pre>

<script type="text/javascript">
  var ajaxRq = window.XMLHttpRequest ? new XMLHttpRequest() : new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
  ajaxRq.open("GET", "/home/lawlist/archives/init.el", false);
  ajaxRq.send(null);
  document.write('<pre class="brush:  lisp">');
  document.write(ajaxRq.responseText);
  document.write('</pre>');
</script>
