Steve's LoadJsFile function...

URL: http://www.stekolla.com/articles/ondemand.php

can someone enlighten me as to how his approach solves dependencies ?

I have included:
try {
var t = new DependecyObject();
} catch (e) {
eval(LoadJSFile('dependencymodule.js', true));
}

i a few of my functions and i am not sure if above functions should be
placed in one file or in each individual files. Can someone please
enlighten me ?

Just when I thought I had seen the worst approach to trying to
dynamically load a JS File I see that one.

can someone enlighten me as to how his approach solves dependencies ?

It doesn't, all by itself.

I have included:
try {
var t = new DependecyObject();
} catch (e) {
eval(LoadJSFile('dependencymodule.js', true));
}

try, catch and eval all in one block. Ewwwww. Since LoadJSFile doesn't
return anything other than ''(possibly but not always), then I don't see
a lot of sense in eval'ing it. The file it is trying to load will get
executed.

placed in one file or in each individual files. Can someone please
enlighten me ?

Maybe you should try asking Steve about Steve's code.
