The problem is that jsfiddle defaults to putting your code in an
onloadhandler, which means yourchangeColor()function was not a global function and wasn’t accessible from inline event attributes.If you look to the left of the jsfiddle page you can choose a framework to include (it defaults to MooTools, but you can use jQuery and various others) and choose whether your JavaScript will be in the head, the body, an onload handler or onDOMReady handler.
So your code works if you include it in the head or body: http://jsfiddle.net/TAvtJ/1/
