I’m developing a dynamic website using jQuery and I have found several jQuery plugins to be very helpful when doing that.
Of course, for each plugin I add, there is another script to load when the page loads. I know that for pages to be quick to load, smaller and/or fewer resources is better.
Is it safe to just merge all those jQuery plugin files into one? Do I need to check something before I do, or can this even be done quick and dirty by a script on the server-side?
Yes, it is. That’s what will happen in your browser, anyway.
You could also use a minification tool such as the Google Closure Compiler or the YUI Compressor to further reduce the size of your JavaScript code.
