I have this code in jQuery
: (the file name is javascript.js ...I was using JavaScript before...)
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#readFile").click(function() {
$.get('test.txt', function(data) {
$("#bottom_pane_options").html(data); // #bottom_pane_options is the div I want the data to go
}, 'text');
});
});
...and this in HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Culminating</title>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="./javascript.js"></script>
<script
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyCJnj2nWoM86eU8Bq2G4lSNz3udIkZT4YY&sensor=false">
</script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
function initialize()
{
var mapProp = {
center:new google.maps.LatLng(50.569283,-84.378433),
zoom:5,
mapTypeId:google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN
};
var map=new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("googleMap"),mapProp);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
<div id="googleMap"></div>
<div id="right_pane_results">hi</div>
<div id="bottom_pane_options">
<button id="readFile">Read File</button>
</div>
</div>
</body>
When I check the console, I get the Uncaught ReferenceError
saying that $
is not defined on the first line. I'm assuming that it is referring to the first character on the first line. I got this code from a website and I'm new to jQuery
so I'm not sure what is going wrong here.
Any suggestions?
Change the order you're including your scripts (jQuery first):
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./javascript.js"></script>
<script
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_APIKEY&sensor=false">
</script>
The MVC 5 stock install puts javascript references in the _Layout.cshtml file that is shared in all pages. So the javascript files were below the main content and document.ready function where all my $'s were.
BOTTOM PART OF _Layout.cshtml:
<div class="container body-content">
@RenderBody()
<hr />
<footer>
<p>© @DateTime.Now.Year - My ASP.NET Application</p>
</footer>
</div>
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/bootstrap")
@RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
</body>
</html>
I moved them above the @RenderBody() and all was fine.
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/bootstrap")
@RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
<div class="container body-content">
@RenderBody()
<hr />
<footer>
<p>© @DateTime.Now.Year - My ASP.NET Application</p>
</footer>
</div>
</body>
</html>
