Toggle between PayPal Order and PayPal subscription

I’ve been working on a paypal checkout and am having difficulties, my company is offering services that can be purchased one time, or on a recurring basis, and I have the checkout page designed and using dropdowns they can choose the level of service and the frequency, well I now noticed while implementing paypal, I have to use “intent=subscription” to do subscription’s, but if I have that then a normal order can’t be placed, and if I have both scripts included then i get a 500 error during checkout. Is there anyway i can unload/reload the scripts that i need when the buttons change, this is what i have to change the buttons

$(".product-info :input").change(function () {
             if($( ".productselect" ).val() == "basic"){
                 $( "#basic" ).show();
                 $( "#plus" ).hide();
                 $( "#premier" ).hide();
             }else if ($( ".productselect" ).val() == "plus"){
                 $( "#basic" ).hide();
                 $( "#plus" ).show();
                 $( "#premier" ).hide();
             }else if ($( ".productselect" ).val() == "premier"){
                 $( "#basic" ).hide();
                 $( "#plus" ).hide();
                 $( "#premier" ).show();
             }
             if($( ".timingselect" ).val() == "Single"){

Answer

You can use a helper function such as the following to load/reload the SDK dynamically:

function loadAsync(url, callback) {
  var s = document.createElement('script');
  s.setAttribute('src', url); s.onload = callback;
  document.head.insertBefore(s, document.head.firstElementChild);
}

// Usage Example:

loadAsync('https://www.paypal.com/sdk/js?client-id=test&currency=USD', function() {
  paypal.Buttons({

    // Set up the transaction
    createOrder: function(data, actions) {
        return actions.order.create({
            purchase_units: [{
                amount: {
                    value: '0.01'
                }
            }]
        });
    },

    // Finalize the transaction
    onApprove: function(data, actions) {
        return actions.order.capture().then(function(details) {
            // Show a success message to the buyer
            alert('Transaction completed by ' + details.payer.name.given_name);
        });
    }

  }).render('body');  // Replace with selector of desired container to render in
});

(Your callback can of course be a named function such as your paypalsingle rather than an anonymous one as in the above usage example)
