@MikeOSSep 30.2010 — #You could try using compressors, they will do stuff like remove comments, whitespace, shorten variable and function names etc, bringing your file size down. Here are some that you can try:
It's a large file and keeps growing as I add new functionality
Is it better to have all your code in file or split over several related files?
Issues:
impact on performance of page
ease of maintenance[/QUOTE]
If you keep them in a single external file you gain in loading performance, but the maintenance will be poor. Otherwise, you lose the performance (as the browser has to do repeated requests to the server, one for each JS file), but it would be easier for the coder to maintain, change, debug, etc.
Keep a balance between them - my advice. Split the code, but in not so many separate files.
