So I have this page which is setup with a Bootstrap template.
What I would like to do is to use an external JavaScript-file as such: drive:\myfolder\mysubfolder\myexternaljavascriptfile.js. The <script> tag is located just before the </body> tag.
The Bootstrap-javafiles are in the <head> section. Also tried placing it in the <body> section.
So this is what I have now.
<script>
const element = document.getElementById("hitme");
element.addEventListener("click", myfunc);
</script>
also tried using myfunc() to no avail.
I want myfunc to use my external JavaScript file
It works if I use it in the same <script> tag in the HTML doc but that is not what I want.
Also, it does work if I use <button onclick("Myfunc")>Hit Me</button> but I reckon this is the old way using the click-event etc.
Put the js file in the same folder as your index.html file and link it to HTML with script tag <script href="script,js" defer><script> defer attribute load the js file after HTML CSS done loading

I am defining the source of a .js file and attempting to call a function from that file in the same tag, as follows:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsFunctionTest.js">
testMethodCall();
</script>
The .js file just contains:
function testMethodCall(){
window.alert("Hello there");
}
This doesn't work, I don't see the alert.
However, if I change the tag to two tags, as below, then it works:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsFunctionTest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
testMethodCall();
</script>
This seems pretty messy. Is there any reason the first one doesn't work?
script elements can have a src attribute or content, but not both. If they have both, the content is ignored (the content is considered "script documentation," not code).
You cannot register an external file and use the content in it, both at a time inside <script> tags. Only either one is allowed.
I have an application that allows the use of inline javascript, but not javascript from source files. I'm trying to modify a webpage to open on this browser, and need to know how to put the javascript files from the webpage inline.
Use <script> tags in your HTML. They can go anywhere - I prefer inside the <head> tag:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// put anything here - any type of valid javascript works
// if you import jquery, you can use jquery here too!
</script>
</head>
You should place your imported code into the script tag in your HTML page (application in your case), look at the following example:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
//Import your JS script here, e.g.:
function doSomething(){
..
}
</script>
</head>
<body>...</body>
</html>
I have to use a plugin which bundles js files inside html files (gadgets). For one use case I need to drop and re-instantiate a gadget to run updated code.
So say I have foo.html:
<html>
<head>
<script src="foo.js"></script>
</head>
<body>...</body>
</html>
and foo.js which is the file being injected into my actual document's head:
alert("hello");
Problem is I can only cachebust the html file dynamically and declare my gadget as foo.html?x=123, but the JS file I'm after will still be foo.js so the browser will not re-run it.
Question:
Once a <script> tag is inserted into the document and run, is there any way to run it again without using a module-loader or eval?
Thanks!
You could wrap your code in your <script> tags in a function then call your function. This will allow you to call your code to be called multiple times. Like this:
<script>
function loaded(){
// JavaScript here
}
loaded();
</script>
</body>
I'm learning jQuery, and I'm running into a small problem. jQuery code works when I put it directly in my tags in my HTML, but when I import it from a different file, nothing happens. These are my script tags in HTML:
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/test.js"></script> <!--This is my jQuery code-->
test.js contains the following code:
$(document).ready(function(){
console.log("Hello");
});
When the page loads, the console is empty. However, when I paste the following code as so, in my html document, everything works fine.
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
console.log("Hello");
});
</script>
Do you really have a folder named scripts in the folder where your HTML files exist? Otherwise try changing this src="scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js" to probably this: src="/scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js"
You can check by browsing to http://yoururl/scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js, the Jquery code should show up. If it's not there, you have to make sure that you include the right folder/file.
Yes.You will be able to push your scripts in 2 ways::
1-push your scripts in tag like>>
<script>$(document).ready(function(){alert("Welcome Dear");});</script>
2-push your inline scripts with attributes like>>
<button type='button' onclick="$(this).hide()">Hide Me</button>
make sure that the scripts folder contain test.js make sure that the extension is correct ..sometimes I make the same same mistake, instead of test.js i save it as test.js.txt
Try putting
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
in the body rather than the head.

For some reason the external .js file I am linking to isn't working. I am linking to it like so:
<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I have tested jquery using a simple inline script to hide a paragraph of text when it is clicked on so the jquery library is present and working.
The jquery.js file is in the same folder as the index.php file that is calling it.
What am I doing wrong?
This is the code I have in the external .js file currently just to test it is working(it isn't):
$("document").ready(function(){
$("p").click(function(){
$("p").css("color", "red");
});
});
Problem 1
It looks like jquery.js contains the code you wrote that depends on jQuery.
You need to load jQuery before you try to use it.
Swap the order of the <script> elements.
Problem 2
$("document") will wait for <document> elements to be ready. HTML doesn't have such a thing. Lose the quotes to pass in the document object directly.
Better yet, forget about the explicit call to ready and just
jQuery(function () { /* your function */ });
