Not able to call javascript function from index.html

HI i am facing some problem while calling function from index.html on load event
it return error readjson is not defined in console.
index.html
<script type="text/javascript">
$(window).load(function () {
readjson('a','s');
});
</script>
main.js file
<script type="text/javascript">
function readjson(val1,val2){
//some code
}
</script>
Can anyone tell me why it is not able to call, i have link main.js file to index.html

JavaScript files shouldn't include any HTML.
Remove <script type="text/javascript"> and </script> from main.js.
You should see an error when that file is loaded (along the lines of Unexpected token <).

Call it like this inside the js file without the "script" tag :
function readjson(val1,val2){
//some code
}
In index.html you need the "script"
And follow the advice given in the comments, always include first the .js file and then the function in the index.html

Did you add jquery link properly??
If not, you should add jquery link for $(window) to be called. such as..
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>

If you actually have two script declarations as you are showing here the the window load will fire first. It then look for your function, which has not been created yet. That's why you are getting undefined.
You could have one script declaration on the page and place your function in the load function.
<script>
$(window).load(function () {
readjson('a','s');
function readjson(val1,val2){
//some code
}
});
</script>

Remove tags from main.js:
<script type="text/javascript"> and </script>
and remember to include jquery and main.js with:
<script src="https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-2.1.4.min.js"></script>
<script src="test.js"></script>

Struggling to implement jQuery date picker

I'm trying to implement a jQuery script here: http://amsul.ca/pickadate.js/date.htm
I have entered the following (where fbrp__35 is the id of my input) after my form:
<script>
$('#fbrp__35').pickadate()
</script>
But it's not working. I have also tried the following:
<script>
$( document ).ready(function() {
$('#fbrp__35').pickadate()
});
</script>
What am I doing wrong?

The library files need to be loaded in the following order:
legacy.js
picker.js
picker.date.js
picker.time.js

Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function while using jQuery UI

I haven't used jQuery before, and I wanted to use DateTimePicker plugin on my web page.
I downloaded the plugin file and placed them in the same directory as the HTML files.
I directly applied the code at How to use it? in http://xdsoft.net/jqplugins/datetimepicker/.
It threw the following error.
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function pixelcrawler:61 (anonymous function)
My code follows.
<script type='text/javascript' src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="file:///jquery.datetimepicker.css"/ >
<script src="file:///jquery.datetimepicker.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker();
</script>
<div class="container">
<div class="text-center">
<div class="page-header">
<h1>${conf['title']} <small>${conf['description']}</small></h1>
</div>
</div>
<div class="text">
<input id="datetimepicker" type="text" >
.
.
.
.
.
I could not figure out what the problem was. I have tried many other seemingly likely options, but it just did not work either.
(The ${} tags are used for the Mako template language. I am using Cherrypy.)
UPDATE:
I figured out the source of the problem.
It's from jQuery('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker();.
When tested, the datetimepicker() function was undefined. Maybe the way I imported the library was wrong?

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('#datetimepicker').datepicker();
})
I don't know your file-structure. I never include local files like this as I use relative URLs from the start rather than having to change everytime I'm ready to use the code, but it's likely one of the files isn't being loaded in. I've included the standard datepicker below using Google CDN's jQuery UI. Does your console log any resources not found?
I think your jQuery is loaded OK, because it's not telling you jQuery is not defined so it's one of your files.
BTW, PHP gets the home URL:
$home="http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].'/';
Demo code datepicker, jQuery UI:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.4/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.4/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('#datetimepicker').datepicker();
})
</script>
<input id="datetimepicker" type="text">

This is about the HTML parse mechanism.
The HTML parser will parse the HTML content from top to bottom. In your script logic,
jQuery('#datetimepicker')
will return an empty instance because the element has not loaded yet.
You can use
$(function(){ your code here });
or
$(document).ready(function(){ your code here });
to parse HTML element firstly, and then do your own script logics.

use jQuery.noConflict()
var j = jQuery.noConflict();
j(document).ready(function(){
j('#datetimepicker').datepicker();
})

For my situation, it was a naming conflict problem. Adding $J solves it.
//Old code:
function () {
var extractionDialog;
extractionDialog = $j("#extractWindowDialog").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
appendTo: "form",
height: "100",
width: "250",
modal: true
});
$("extractBomInfoBtn").button().on("click", function () {
extractionDialog.dialog("open");
}
And the following is new code.
$j(function () {
var extractionDialog;
extractionDialog = $j("#extractWindowDialog").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
appendTo: "form",
height: "100",
width: "250",
modal: true
});
$j("extractBomInfoBtn").button().on("click", function () {
extractionDialog.dialog("open");
});
});
Hope it could help someone.

Usually when you get this problem, it happens because a script is trying to reference an element that doesn't exist yet while the page is loading.
As richie mentioned: "The HTML parser will parse the HTML content from top to bottom..."
So you can add your JavaScript references to the bottom of the HTML file. This will not only improve performance; it will also ensure that all elements referenced in your script files have already been loaded by the HTML parser.
So you could have something like this:
<html>
<head>
<!-- Style sheet references and CSS definitions -->
</head>
<body>
<!-- HTML markup and other page content -->
<!-- JavaScript references. You could include jQuery here as well and do all your scripting here. -->
</body>
</html>

You may see if you are not loading jQuery twice somehow. Especially after your plugin JavaScript file loaded.
I has the same error and found that one of my external PHP files was loading jQuery again.

The issue because of not loading jquery ui library.
https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.js - CDN source file
Call above path in your file.

And if you have this problem in slider or slideshow you must use jquery.easing.1.3:
<script src="http://gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/jquery.easing.1.3.js"></script>

I had trouble getting selectable to work with ASP.NET. It turns out I wasn't properly including everything, but this gentleman made it foolproof: Three steps to use jQuery UI in ASP.NET MVC 5.

I don't think jQuery itself includes datetimepicker. You must use jQuery UI instead (src="jquery.ui").

Does jQuery have to be written in the <script> tags in HTML?

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.

Jquery - Linking external .js file not working

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 */ });
