Thanks Billy, I wasn't aware of that! While we're on the subject I have another question:
Currently what I'm doing is: 1) Call function 1, checks for jQuery and if not then loads the library and recursively checks until its available. 2) Once its available, a second function is called and does the same thing to load a plugin 3) Ditto for my custom .js file I don't like this because of the excessive opening and closing of connections required... is combining libraries + custom code into 1 file a terrible pratice? Any other decent way to get by this step-by-step rudimentary approach? Thanks again! -Alex On Aug 29, 3:04 pm, Bil Corry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Alex Weber wrote on 8/29/2008 10:15 AM: > > > i'd rather use packed then minified though :) > > Use minified, not packed.
