javascript - Why is this jQuery click function not working? -


code:

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript">     $("#clicker").click(function () {         alert("hello!");         $(".hide_div").hide();     }); </script> 

the above code doesn't work. when click on #clicker, doesn't alert , and doesn't hide. checked console , no errors. checked see if jquery loading , indeed is. not sure issue is. did document ready function alert , worked not sure doing wrong. please help. thanks!

you supposed add javascript code in $(document).ready(function() {}); block.

i.e.

$(document).ready(function() {   $("#clicker").click(function () {     alert("hello!");     $(".hide_div").hide();   }); }); 

as jquery documentation states: "a page can't manipulated safely until document "ready." jquery detects state of readiness you. code included inside $( document ).ready() run once page document object model (dom) ready javascript code execute"
