I have made a lot of functions. I put these functions in a script.js file. But all these functions are loading on every page.

I have made the functions like this:

$(function () {
}):

But how can I ensure that the functions are not loading on every page?
That I can call only the function that I need?

    Paul Irish has a nice way of dealing with that problem. See his article:

    You can basically create an structure for each of your pages like this:

    var siteNameSpace  = {
   homepage : {
      onload : function(){
         // do this stuff.
      }
   },
   contact : {
      onload : function(){
         // onload stuff for contact us page
      }
    }
};

    And respective page’s code will fire only with:

    $(document).ready( siteNameSpace[ document.body.id ].onload );

    For that, you need to assign an id to body tag of each of your pages:

    <body id="home">
<body id="contactUs">
and so on
