Flip toggle switch (jQuery) on change not firing
Question
I need to fire an event (which sends POST data to an external script) when the state of a toggle switch changes, but I cannot even get the most basic example to work...
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
HTML:
<label for="flipswitch">Option:</label>
<select name="flipswitch" id="flipswitch" data-role="slider">
<option value="off">Off</option>
<option value="on">On</option>
</select>`
JavaScript (in the <head> section):
<script>
$('#flipswitch').change(function(){
console.log("flipswitch");
});
</script>

The code works for me. Are you sure you're looking at the console output? Do you have the code in the $('document').ready(function() {
)};

The problem you are experiencing is that at the execution time of script, there is no element with the specified id. There are several ways how to overcome this problem.
<script>
$(function() {
$('#flipswitch').change(function(){
console.log("flipswitch");
});
});
</script>
or you may simply move the script tag from head tag to the bottom of body tag and it will work as well.

$("#flipswitch").on("change", function(e){
console.log("flipswitch");
});
Could be because the .change is deprecated in favor of .on()
