Question

Looked for it everywhere, and found the answer but lost. anyone knows how to load an external .js file from another js file?

main_lobj1.onreadystatechange =          


        

Answer 1

If you call an external script you want to base your script on you may want to take note that ajax-based jquery script are asynchronous by defealt.

Calling an external script asynchronousily will cause the rest of the rest being executed before the external script is loaded.

Today I ran into the same problem which was easily being solved by making a small adition to Sam Arul Raj's post:

$.ajax({
  type: "GET",
  url: "test.js",
  dataType: "script",
  async: false
});
