Default Google and Javascripts

Hello, I want an advice on the following thing:

I have a webpage which has static JavaScript like this one

<script>
document.write ('Partner 1 usefull seo information');
document.write ('Partner 2 usefull health information');
document.write ('Partner 3 usefull ebooks for free');
</script>

How does web spiders (google) does interprets the SCRIPT code (as you can see it has a html code inside)? does it spiders it and takes into account as content or it has to be without the javascript code?

Let me know! Thanks :)

The spiders can't interpret Javascript, so anything you have placed inside your tags will be lost to the spider.

Are you 100% sure? Is this tested?

I've tested it, and I've never seen any keyword phrase get ranked from the content found within the js.

Is it possible? Sure, but why would a search engine rank on code that is supposed to provide functionality?

The current thinking is to enclose all "javascript" in separate files and call them up.

Best practice dictates maximum content vs code. In decoding algorithms, this is called "Signal to Noise Ratio".
