Ok, this is a noob questions. I'm using Wordpress and have the following code.
In the header I add: <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/ js/jquery-1.2.6.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/ js/test.js"></script> The test javascript contains: $(document).ready(function() { $("a").click(function() { alert("Hello world!"); }); }); function msg(txt) { alert(txt); } In my test php file I have: <a href="#"> test A </a> <br /> <a href="#" onclick="msg('Hello world')">Test B</a> Now, clicking Test B links dislays the 'Hello World' alert. But nothing happends when I click Test A. Why is that?
