Re: PHP quickform with Javascript

I would create a separate JS file and include it in the head of your html file: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jqueryfile.js"></script> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="yourscript.js"></script> Then in yourscript.js file, I would probably do something like: $(document).ready( function() { $("#test").click( function() { alert( 'i was clicked' ); }) }) On Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 1:53 AM, zia mohaddes <zia.simab@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Mark, > Thank you kindly for your email!
