Hi,

My issue is that multiple websites are going to include my JS file and when calling something like this:

<script src="..."></script>

hello.say("yay");

there going to be a race issue so sometimes it could make it sometimes not. i know that i can solve that easily by putting every function in a window.onload but that wouldn't be clean as i've seen other websites magically solve that like google analytics:

.. Calling google analytics JS..

<script type="text/javascript">
try{
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxx-x");     <-- this an object !
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}
</script>

How to do that?
