Can I have multiple jquery .load() event in one page?

Is this possible? I've got one jquery file that is loaded in every page that uses the .load() event, but then a few select pages also require some specific jquery stuff where I'd like to use .load() again. Thanks for reading.

Yep, that's no worries.

The events will run in the order they were defined:

$(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>A</span>');
});
$(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>B</span>');
});
$(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>C</span>');
});

The above would append "ABC" to the page.

Interestingly, if you use the long-hand method, it completes in a different order:

$(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>A</span>');
});
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>B</span>');
});
$(function() {
  $('body').append('<span>C</span>');
});

This outputs "ACB"

Even more confusingly, if you only use the longhand, then it appears as though the first handler runs last and the rest in order:

$(document).ready(function() { /* A */ });
$(document).ready(function() { /* B */ });
$(document).ready(function() { /* C */ });
$(document).ready(function() { /* D */ });
$(document).ready(function() { /* E */ });
// BCDEA
