Hi,
I'm trying to mix jQuery with some pre-existing JavaScript/HTML, but
I'm having what appears to be scope issues.
The code I'm working on already has a bunch of inline event handler
function calls in the HTML tags, and it'd be a ton of work to change
them all to the unobtrusive way via jQuery. Now when I wrap all the
pre-existing function definitions into the jQuery document instance
(i.e., $(function(){ ... }), I'm able to slip in some jQuery.
However, all the function definitions are now no longer available to
the inline event handler calls.
Here's a simple demonstration. In this example the test() function is
not available when the div.
<script>
$(function(){
function test(){ console.log('hi')}
});
</script>
<div onclick="test()" style="background-color:red; width:300px">hi </div>
Any ideas? I'm assuming many others have run into this predicament.
Thanks for reading,
Eric P.
