How to use multiple JS files in the same html file | not working for me

I'm trying to use multiple js files in one page. My plan was to have a nav.js file which I can use for multiple pages, to operate the nav. Then another file which is only for a specific page. so in the code it becomes: <head> <scr.. src = "nav.js"> </scr...> <scr.. src = "games-page.js"> </scr...> </head> But it won't work. Only the first file works (in this case nav.js). If I flip it and put games-page.js first, nav.js won't work. I tried async and defer, but had no luck. any ideas? </head>

files website multiple js page one not working async defer

Ginfio Problem maybe both files are not compatible with each other.

Ginfio Means maybe nav.js made with another version of jQuery and games-page.js made with another version of jQuery.

Ginfio this is not a problem with your scripts your both scripts are calling when head tag call. This is a problem with alert tag when the first alert is called the second alert not don't get the time to run. Just add a delay after the first alert. Will work. You can also do something with second scripts like by console.log Look at here. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50412050/alert-is-not-working-second-time-when-clicking-on-button

Ginfio it should be worked because you call Js files as many as you want to call in the head tag. Btw what type of codes those both files has. Do these files are using jquery or something.

Ginfio on which code editor you are running your code like VS code something. Do both files are present in the same folder.

You can use the javascript function to call the particular script. function loadScript(url) { var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]; var script = document.createElement('script'); script.type = 'text/javascript'; script.src = url; head.appendChild(script); } And call this function where you want to apply the js file. loadScript('nav.js'); Hope it helps.
