Putting a bit of Javascript in a separate file?
Question
I'm trying to re-create this locally: http://jsfiddle.net/janpetras/wzBu8/ Granted, it shouldn't be that complicated, but I can't get it to work.
This is the code:
$(function(){
var moneyEarned,yearlySalary,secondSalary;
$("#startEarning").click(function(){
moneyEarned = 0;
var hourlySalary = $("#hourlySalary").val();
if(hourlySalary.length > 0) {
secondSalary = hourlySalary / 3600;
} else {
yearlySalary = $("#yearlySalary").val();
secondSalary = yearlySalary / 7200000;
}
setInterval(updateMoneyEarned, 1000);
});
function updateMoneyEarned() {
moneyEarned += secondSalary;
$("#moneyEarned").html(accounting.formatMoney(moneyEarned));
}
});
I want to put the Javascript code into a separate "script.js" file. I made the file, correctly linked to it in the HTML, I included jQuery and the accounting.js and everything, and it's not working, not updating.
I tried putting the code straight into the HTML and it's working if I do that, so clearly the problem is the way I make the script.js. I just copied/pasted that code, is there more to it? What am I doing wrong?

Remember that you have to do things in order. You can't include this file if you didn't include jQuery before.
<html>
<head>
<title>...</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/your/script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- your content -->
</body>
</html>
After you have the correct order, you will be able to execute your scripts. If your $(function(){ ... }); call doesn't work, try using it this way:
$(document).ready(function() {
// Your code here
});
and see if it works.

In your jsfiddle i can see that you were including accounting.js in css section:
<script src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/accounting.js/0.3.2/accounting.min.js"></script>
I moved it to the html section and it started working.
