Running a battery charger with load connected to Battery

Hi all,
I have a caravan set up permanantly on site & have no access to 240 volt mains power apart from a small generator which I will only use to charge the battery using a 240/12 volt charger.
I have set up a 100 AH battery that is connected to a 600 Watt inverter to power various items & I also run my Engel fridge direct from the 12 volt battery.

I have 2 questions.

1. Can leave the inverter & Engel fridge connected & switched on while running a 12 volt charger.

2. Can I use an intelligent charger or will the loads confuse the chargers logic.

I have not bought the charger yet as I am thinking that if I get one thats too clever I may screw something up. I would prefer not to have to disconnect anything if I don't have to.

Thanks in advance
Stuart
