Announcement: New version with support for Promises and an Edge CSS onerror bugfix #87

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that we just released a new version of LoadJS (v.3.6.0) that includes a couple of useful features:

First, v3.6.0 adds support for Promises via a returnPromise option:

var prom = loadjs(['/path/to/foo.js', '/path/to/bar.js'], {returnPromise: true});
prom
 .then(function() { /* foo.js & bar.js loaded */ })
 .catch(function(pathsNotLoaded) { /* at least one file didn't load */ });

Second, v3.6.0 includes an important bugfix to detect cross-domain CSS load failures in Edge. Previously, load failures were triggering success callbacks but now they are being handled correctly. The source of the issue was lack of onerror support for cross-domain CSS files loaded via <link rel="stylesheet"> tags. To get around this issue, we are now using rel="preload" to load CSS files in Edge browsers.

Please try out the new features and let me know what you think!
