JQuery load script on event (click)

javascript, jquery

Solution

Something like jQuery.getScript

$("#selector").click(function(){
  $.getScript("http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/color/jquery.color.js");
});

Problem

``` $('#selector').click(function() { // here I would like to load a javascript file // let's say /js/script-on-click-event.js }); ``` Is that somehow possible? I'm not sure but I remember reading about a function that does this in JQuery documentation but I cannot find it here, maybe it's been deprecated or I saw it elsewhere? Basically what I want is to load a script on a click event.
