One website I manage has to load some payment processor icons/information via a JavaScript file on the third party server.

The problem is, sometimes their stuff takes ages to load on the page or times out, resulting in the page not loading properly.

Is there a way of caching this script or the output it generates maybe?

I do this on a few sites using a bit of PHP - I check the age of a local copy of the script and if it's x seconds old I load a fresh version and save it, otherwise I load the local copy.

This is useful when you're loading a JSON Twitter feed because their site is bloody slow.
