[Geoprisma-dev] Dynamically loading JS

[James McGrath]

Hi list,

 

I just got an idea that I’m just throwing like that that could help reduce
the quantity of JS loaded on startup of geoprisma.  Some widgets are loaded
in stand-by to be used (And probably won’t be used in a typical session), we
could change heavy widgets so it loads only when first called by including
the JS dynamically using this :

 

---------------------------------

var script = document.createElement('script');

script.src = "widget/foobar/dynaJS.js";

script.type = 'text/javascript';

script.defer = true;

var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head').item(0);

head.appendChild(script);

---------------------------------

 

I’m using this sort of dynamic script inclusion for another project and so
far it works with every browser we used.  I think it could help a little for
a js hungry implementation.

 

 

Regards,
