[Proto-Scripty] Re: Include scripts
Hi, Your best bet for something like that is to have a build process that combines the scripts (and then minifies them), and then include the resulting single script with just one script tag. Reading lots of individual script files will be quite slow, because browsers typically will load only one or two at a time, and it takes very perceptible time to individually retrieve even three or four scripts in addition to the other resources on the page. Latency kills. I don't currently have a good recommendation of a build tool to use for this, but if it's just combining files and then running them through jsmin or something similar, any of the usual suspects (rake, ant, etc.) should be able to manage it. Google's just released their Closure Compiler, which handles doing this (including dependency management, although it's a bit of a pain to configure dependencies at present based on comments in the discussion group) as well as handling removing unused code and various other optimisations. It's still very new: http://code.google.com/closure/compiler/ HTH, -- T.J.

Prototype's using Sprockets[1] for this. You might want to give it a spin.
