            });

The thing is that i used the same method before and it worked for me on all browsers but not anymore. can someone try to help me out the problem. thanks guys..

Answer 1

Try this, we assuming your 'testingbtn' is dynamically added to the screen.

$(document).ready(function(){
    $( "body" ).on( "click", "#testingbtn", function() {
                    alert('working');
    });
});

Answer 2

I never recommend to do it in this way. Always put this code outside php.

HTML

<button id="testingbtn">TEsting</button>;

jQuery

 $('#testingbtn').click(function(){
                alert('working');
            });

Also make sure jQuery is included in your code.
