Hi,

How controlled is the environment? Many browsers can be configured that
scripts from a specific domain may load data from another domain via
XMLHttpRequest. Please don't ask me for details now, but I had that problem
once in an environment with only IE 6.
> if($.browser.msie) {
> script = document.createElement('script');
> script.type = 'text/javascript';
> script.src = url;
> document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(script);

Is there a good reason, why you distinguish between IE and real browsers here?
I'd think, that both variants should work in both cases.

Well, if you add it to the body it might be in your way when working on the
content via DOM or jQuery. I like to have stuff like that in the head.
Functionally there should be no difference.
