script-tag

I don't understand the reason for replacing this: <script src="js/example.js"></script> with this: $.getScript('js/example.js', function() { alert('Load was performed.'); }); Is there a particular reason to use the jQuery version? The only reason I can think of is that you get the callback when the script is loaded. But you can get that callback using a script tag, too, by using the load event (or on really old IE, onreadystatechange ). In contrast, there are several negatives to doing it this way, not least that getScript is subject to the Same Origin Policy , whereas a script tag is not.

A script element that got styled as display:block appears visible. Why is it possible and is there any real use case where it is desired? td > * { display: block; } <table> <tr> <td> <script type="text/javascript"> var test = 1; </script>von 1 </td> </tr> </table> unor The HTML5 specification defines a style sheet that user agents (like browsers) are expected to use.

Is there any difference (performance, best practices, etc) between using a single script tag with embedded code in it, or using multiple script tags with the same code spread all over the HTML?
