Adding more than one JavaScript to a page

The solution

The way to go about solving this conflict is simple,
though not quite the same to explain. Essentially, what
you want is to end up with only ONE delta for both scripts,
with that delta calling the two scripts. Let's list some
possible scenarios now, and their resolutions:

EXAMPLE #1:
SCRIPT 1: <body onload="dothis()">
SCRIPT 2: <body onload="dothat()">
RESOLUTION: <body onload="dothis();dothat()">

EXAMPLE #2:
SCRIPT 1: <body onload="dothis()">
SCRIPT 2: window.onload=dothat()
RESOLUTION: <body onload="dothis();dothat()">

EXAMPLE #3:
SCRIPT 1: window.onload=dothis
SCRIPT 2: window.onload=dothat
RESOLUTION: <body onload="dothis();dothat()">

As you can see, regardless of whether the two scripts contain
"delta" or "beta", the resolution is the same- remove BOTH lines,
and call the scripts directly within the <body> tag, each separated
by a semicolon. If you wish to combine three scripts, the procedure
is the exact same.

By using the above technique, both scripts are called and executed,
as opposed to just one- or neither. In other words, conflict avoided!

for some additional information on resolving script conflicts.

By the why I got above by doing a search.
