When I do something simple like this:

$ ->
  $('#target').html('blabla')

it works.

When i try:

$ ->
  $('#target').html('blabla').myFunction()

  myFunction = ->
    // a certain action

I always get an error: TypeError: $(...).html(...).myFunction is not a function.

Why is that?

As you might guess, I´m far from pro!

    It’s not a CoffeeScript problem. You’re not defining a jQuery plugin that can be called on a jQuery object, but just a regular function. Have a look here: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Authoring
