I need to prioritize scripts so jQuery, Cufon, and my .js files come before Twitter does. I've tried defer="defer" as well as placing scripts in the bottom in the order I want them to execute but all these methods aren't working.
I don't want to modify Twitter's files either. Anything I can do?
Have your script create the html to have the Twitter script downloaded. That way it will be loaded and executed after your script, which comes after jQuery and Cufon.
