JavaScript not working

[Pawan_Agarwal]

I have created website and posted it on PHP server BUT, JavaScript is not working 

 

 

=============================================================

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);

date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Kolkata');

?>

<script type="text/javascript" src='images/js1.js'></script>

// WHEN I AM TRYING TO IMPORT THE FILE THEN IT IS NOT WORKING 

<link rel="stylesheet" href="images/mycss.css" type="text/css" />

=============================================================

 

I have written the above line and the page is not detecting any javascript file 

 

 

=============================================================

<script type="text/javascript" >

function display(){

alert("this is text");

}

</script> // THIS CODE IS WORKING

 

=============================================================

 

but if I write, code like this then it is working, can some one tell me why is this happening ??

what about a css link?

[Pawan_Agarwal]

css link is not creating problem, when I try to import JS File , it does not work, but when I write the code in <script> tag and does not import JS File, it works !!

 

Can you suggest something ?? Thanks for your reply !

Have you tried opening your browser's Console panel to see if there are any page or JavaScript errors? In Chrome, for example, you can hit Ctrl + Shift + J to open the Console. You can also right-click the page and click "Inspect Element" to access the Console.

can you define 'not working'

[Pawan_Agarwal]

when I try to import JS File , no function works, but when I write the code in <script> tag and does not import JS File, function executes !!

If your js file ONLY contains

function display(){
  alert("this is text");
}

Then yeah, it does nothing because nothing calls "display()" function. It's just a defined function.

 

To test it, try adding display(); after the function declaration so the function gets called, or just type "display()" in the js console.
