Can you append inline script tags below external scripts?

Question

I have an inline piece of javascript like this:

<html>
  <body
    <script>test1</script>
  </body>
</html>

There is an external js that is executed that appends a script below the inline script and over writes it, any thoughts on how to do that?

<html>
  <body
    <script>test1</script>
    <script>externaltest1</script>
  </body>
</html>

Your title and your code are conflicting. It also doesn't matter if one is inline and the other is external. — Mike Cluck

Confused on the question exactly, do you want to append a script tag into your html?

You can append script tags into your html with the following:

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = url;
$("#yourElement").append(script);

Note: If you are looking to add external js, you would typically include these between <head> or in your footer like so:

<script type="text/javascript" src="yourExtenalScriptPath.js"></script>

I think OP said INLINE

@Byzod, the first example does append a script into the HTML, does it not?

Further, any function calls defined in both files would always be executed from the last script available, exactly what OP asked. I kindly ask you to reconsider your down vote.
