This function uses jQuery getScript() to load external JavaScript files, which are printed at the footer of the HTML source. You use it by filtering nesn_load_external_script().
/**
* Hookable filter which loads external scripts in the footer. See the example below
*
* <code>
* filter_nesn_load_external_script( $params ) {
* $params['unique_id']['url'] = 'http://path.to/resource.js';
* $params['unique_id']['callback'] = 'callMeAfterScriptLoads';
* return $params;
* }
*
* add_filter( 'nesn_load_external_script', $func, 10, 1 );
* </code>
* @uses apply_filters, esc_url
* @action wp_footer
