while using the ASP.Net Ajax Library to load scripts does it check to see if the script is already loaded?
For example, if I have a script block in my aspx page and one in my master page and they both load jquery via the sys.require() method with jquery get loaded twice?
I’ve not tried it myself, but it ‘should’ be intelligent enough to only load once.
Here’s a related article: HOW TO Load Required Scripts, esp the last paragraph.
PS: Considering it is smart enough to combine scripts, it should be able to detect duplicates.
