element.innerHTML无法调用我的javascript函数

Question

I am so new to web development and I am encountering this problem. I tried googling this but the problems that I saw is not related to mine.

I have a jsp file that contains only this code:

<script>
displaymessage();
</script>

and in my js file: I have this.

$('ajax_content').innerHTML = resp.responseText;

where in the resp.responseText is equivalent to a string that represents the jsp file.

The function inside the jsp file is existing in the compiled HTML page but the function is not called.

The function's purpose is just to display a message. Could anybody help me?

Answer 1

Inserting a script via innerHTML does NOT run that script.

Instead, you should remove those script tags and just run the AJAX response through eval .
