I have the following line of code:
$('#text').append('<h2 style="color:white">afdghadfg</h2>');
If I paste this code inside of a script tag in the html, it works fine. However, when placed inside a .js file it does nothing.
Know that the .js file has plenty of other working javascript and jQuery code, it is only this line that won’t work.
Could be the context you are putting it. Make sure it’s not wrapped in a function and directly executable. Also check the JavaScript console (Firebug / CDT) to see if there are any errors.
Another thing to check is if it’s getting executed before DOM ready, but I can’t really tell you without seeing more code.
