jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery(".test").click(function() {
        alert(1);
    });
});

When I try not to put :

jQuery(".test").click(function() {
            alert(1);
        });

inside a jQuery(document).ready() it won’t work.

What do you think is the cause of that one? I already loaded the custom script that has that function.

<script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/js/customScript.js"></script>

Any answer would be appreciated and rewarded.

Thanks!

    If you’re loading it in <head>, then your .test hasn’t loaded yet at the time when your code executes. Thus, jQuery(".test") returns [], so the click event gets attached to nothing. If you move your <script> to the last thing in <body>, it should work.
