I'm building a normal webpage which requires me to load about five CSS files and ten Javascript files.
Now for production, I concatenated all the Javascript into a single file, in the order needed, and all the CSS into another file. But when I try to run the web page with the concatenated files it throws an error saying:
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function
On the line where jquery.min.js is being loaded in the concatenated Javascript file.
What can I do to mitigate this? I want to concatenate all files and minify them for production. Please help.
EDIT: I merged the Javascript and CSS in the order they were when they were being loaded individually and were working fine.
Kelly M. Sep 27, 2020. The $ sign in jQuery is a syntax commonly used as a shortcut to access or define a JavaScript library. The code below illustrates that invoking the $ sign or the jQuery method results in all the <p> tags in a document.
A variable that has not been assigned a value is of type undefined . A method or statement also returns undefined if the variable that is being evaluated does not have an assigned value. A function returns undefined if a value was not returned .
Educative Answers Team. According to the Mozilla website for developer documents, “the TypeError object represents an error when a value is not of the expected type.” Uncaught means that the error was not caught in the catch part of the try-catch block.
Assuming this problem still has not be resolved, a lot of individual files don't end their code with a semicolon. Most jQuery scripts end with (jQuery)
and you need to have (jQuery);
.
As separate files the script will load just fine but as one individual file you need the semicolons.
