Answer 1

In your external file, try wrapping it in a $(document).ready(); call. So

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#frm').submit(function ()
        {
            alert('1');
            return false;
        });
    });

Also, I assume this is obvious, but remove the inline JS, too, when using the external js. 🙂
