I think the spec dictates that the browser is not supposed to process the
second script until the first is completed. I know that some earlier
versions of IE did not do this, but they fixed that quite a while ago. And
it is to help prevent the sort of thing I am seeing. If you load script A
and then load script B that has a call into script A, it should be
guaranteed to work.
I have not finished debugging what I am seeing yet, so I am not sure if
parallel loading is occurring or not, it just smells like it is.
Thanks,
Jim
