If I understood you right you are supporting conditional compilation
idea, but done in jQuery?
Can you elaborate please?
Am I right in thinking that this can lead to a very clever system,
that will increase every page HTTP GET time ?
It is relatively easy to imagine and implement a little jQuery loader
that will load up additional needed parts, in accordance with which is
the browser host. Dynamic composition? Very modern term ;o)
PSEUDO CODE :
// at this point only minimal jQ is loaded
$( function () {
// load jQ part 1
if ( is_supported_X() ) $.getScript ( .... ) else $.getScript
( .... ) ;
// load jQ part 2
if ( is_supported_Y() ) $.getScript ( .... ) else $.getScript
( .... ) ;
// load jQ part 3
if ( is_supported_Z() ) $.getScript ( .... ) else $.getScript
( .... ) ;
// load jQ part 4
if ( is_supported_W() ) $.getScript ( .... ) else $.getScript
( .... ) ;
// and so on untill we have assembled all we need
})
This could be at the bottom of the single minimal js file needed ...
AFAIK, Dojo, ExtJs etc ... all have a conceptually simillar mechanism
for dynamic and transparent addition of necessary parts.
