I have code:

let script = document.createElement("script");
script.src = "https://example.com/script.js";
document.head.append(script);
loadStuff();

How do I run loadStuff after loading script?

  • script elements have an onload event. You can hook the function call there: testScript.onload = someFunctionFromScript;. Commented Oct 26, 2018 at 14:25
  • @Shilly not working: Uncaught ReferenceError: someFunctionFromScript is not defined Commented Oct 26, 2018 at 14:31

    then try testScript.onload = function() { someFunctionFromScript(); }. Commented Oct 26, 2018 at 14:37
  • Oh, it works now. Thank you Commented Oct 26, 2018 at 14:38

Answering my own very old question:

let script = document.createElement("script");
script.src = "https://example.com/script.js";
script.onload = loadStuff;
document.head.append(script);
