Quick Async Script Loading
Just specify the root and an ordered array of the files you want to load asynchronously.
(function() {
var async = function ( files, root ) {
var loadFile;
loadFile = function ( index ) {
var script = document.createElement( 'script' );
script.type = 'text/javascript';
// check for IE
if ( script.readyState ) {
script.onreadystatechange = function () {
if ( script.readyState === 'loaded' || script.readyState === 'complete' ) {
script.onreadystatechange = null;
loadFile( index++ );
}
}
} else {
script.onload = function () {
loadFile( index++ );
}
}
if ( index < files.length ) {
script.src = root + files[index];
document.getElementsByTagName( 'head' )[0].appendChild( script );
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
window.loadScriptsAsync = async;
})();
