I am working with both amq.js (ActiveMQ) and Google Maps. I load my scripts in this order

<head>     <meta http-equiv='content-type' content='text/html;charset=UTF-8' />     <title>AMQ & Maps Demo</title>      <!-- Stylesheet -->     <link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='style.css'></link>      <!-- Google APIs -->     <script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=abcdefg'></script>      <!-- Active MQ -->     <script type='text/javascript' src='amq/amq.js'></script>     <script type='text/javascript'>amq.uri='amq';</script>      <!-- Application -->     <script type='text/javascript' src='application.js'></script> </head>

However in my application.js it loads Maps fine but I get an error when trying to subscribe to a Topic with AMQ. AMQ depends on prototype which the error console in Firefox says object is not defined. I think I have a problem with using the amq object before the script is finished loading. Is there a way to make sure both scripts load before I use them in my application.js?

Google has this nice function call google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize); which works great. I’m not sure amq.js has something like this.

  1. Is there a way to make sure both scripts load before I use them in my application.js?

    JavaScript files should load sequentially and block so unless the scripts you are depending on are doing something unusual all you should need to do is load application.js after the other files.

    Non-blocking JavaScript Downloads has some information about how scripts load (and discusses some techniques to subvert the blocking).
