Handling errors in jQuery.getScript

Question

jQuery\'s getScript function doesn\'t seem to support an error callback function. I can\'t use the global ajax error handling code here, a local error function would be idea

Answer 1

jquery.ajax has a alternative way to handle error

jQuery.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: 'http://www.example.com/script_test.js',
        dataType: "script",
        error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
            console.log('error ', errorThrown);
        },
        success:function(){
            console.log('success');
        }
    });
