Question

this resides inside the body tag in an HTML file and provides parameters to the jquery accordion function:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() { 

$("#accordion").tabs("#accordion div.pane", {tabs: 'h2', effect: 'slide', initialIndex:    null});
});
</script>

I want to save this as an external JavaScript file and call the function to do the same thing.

I am a newbie, please help!

Answer 1

replace it with:
<script src=”script.js”></script>

and create a new file called script.js with the code that used to be in the script tags:

$(function() { 
    $("#accordion").tabs("#accordion div.pane", {tabs: 'h2', effect: 'slide', initialIndex:    null});
});
