Question

I know calls to $(function(){ }) in jQuery are executed in the order that they are defined, but I’m wondering if you can control the order of the queue?

For example, is it possible to call “Hello World 2” before “Hello World 1”:

$(function(){ alert('Hello World 1') });
$(function(){ alert('Hello World 2') });

The question is whether or not it’s possible… I already know it goes against best practice 😉

Those functions are added to a private array readyList, so I’d say it isn’t accessible for manipulation.
