Hi there, I was just curious, I was experimenting with jQuery to use with my website, but I’m wondering how many external JavaScript files should I use to know when enough is enough? Already have 13 so far testing it on my desktop. Thanks for any help.
Hi,
my website also was using 12 scripts (jquery) then i minify them and put some of them into several file (4 now) with the author intact,
correct me if I’m wrong the browser can only deal with 2 HTTP requests at one time so if we have lots of script the loading time would be longer and at first appearance the website looks messy
cheers
I would say use the least possible to get the job done and possibly combine some if it makes the site more efficient.
