Thread-js

The library uses invoked Ajax or script tags marked with the class "tjs-script-include" and downloads them from the src or if marked with class "tjs-script-execute" and needs to get a unique id so the queue can keep track on it use a "data-tjs-pid" attribute and "data-tjs-priority" for setting its order inside the array. Take extra care since conflicting pid`s may overwrite a running thread.

And the same applies to the queue conflicting priority is overwritten with the last one passed unless the option no-queue-override is set in the object instantiation then the index is summed up 1 until it reaches a free position obs: this option is not recommended as it will run synchronously on larger queues it may impact performance.

Note: to prevent the browser from running the JavaScript set its type attribute as anything that is not "text/javascript" e.g. "javascript/worker"s.

Treading in JavaScript works a bit different than the usual listen to the 'ThreadReady' event please note that this need will be removed in future releases. refer to HTML5 rocks to see how to exchange messages with your threaded codes.

var thread = new threadJs(maxThreads) //OR
var thread = new threadJs(maxThreads, any combination of the valid flags);
