I hope this kind of information could help.
http://www.example.com/clienthint.js
what happens if you specify a fully qualified url for the included javascript file?
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.example.com/clienthint.js" ></script>
I tried it. It retured "The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."
You know, I also tried http://www.example.com/phptest.php. And it works.
will apache serve it to your browser?
Yes.

I tried it also could not work. Here I placed both phptest.php and clienthint.js under htdocs directory of Apache HTTP server.
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .js .pl
AddHandler type-map var
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
you are telling apache to treat any.js file as a cgi script, which means the first line must be the path the the script processor such as:
#!/usr/bin/perl
you don't want a handler for javascript files as you are using them.
Thanks a lot
