How many times can I have jQuery's document ready function declared on a page?

Question

How many times is it permitted to have the jQuery document ready function declared on a page, i.e.:

$(function () { ... });

or

$(document).ready(function () { ... });

Is there any difference between the two?

If it's permitted more than one, do they fire in order of declaration?

Answer 1

One: There is no difference between the two.

Quote:

All three of the following syntaxes are equivalent:

$(document).ready(handler)
$().ready(handler) (this is not recommended)
$(handler)

Two: You can have as many of them as you wish, and they will be executed in the order that the $() or $(document).ready() functions are executed. (i.e. each handler is added to the queue)
