[wp-hackers] Adding JS to a Page based upon the used shortcodes

[Casey Bisson]

I haven't checked this in 2.5, but I believe you could hook into  
template_redirect. The posts have been queried, but nothing has been  
output to the browser at that point. You could sniff the content and  
add wp_enqueue_script hooks then.
