getscript

$.getScript()

Shorthand method to include a script into the DOM.

Usage

$.getScript(url[, success]); // => void

See $.ajax() for a description of the input parameters.

Return value

For asynchronous requests, the generated XMLHttpRequest object will be returned. Synchronous requests will return undefined.

Example

The following example includes a script and runs a callback function on success:

$.get(
	"/javascript/chart.js",
	function () {
		console.log("Script loaded");
	}
);

Differences to jQuery

Dabby doesn't return a deferred object like jQuery does, so you cannot chain any deferred methods to this method.
