Load JSON from Internal File HTML

Question

Instead of fetching another file to load JSON data (local or remote), is it possible to just import the data into the HTML class?

The reason why I am asking this is because I would like to create 1 file that contains the HTML, CSS, JQuery, and JSON data without the browser having to fetch any other files.

Ideas?

So what I did was copy the entire contents of jquery.js into the head of the HTML file. — Jake Chasan

You can simply put the data in a normal Javascript variable using an object literal.

var myData = { ... };

But if you do this, could you access this JavaScript data from JQuery?

@JakeChasan: Yes; Javascript code can read Javascript variables.
