JavaScript function in an external file won't run

Question

 'use strict'; function phone() { if( navigator.userAgent.match(/Android/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/webOS/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPod/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/BlackBerry/gi) || navigator.userAgent.match(/Windows Phone/gi) ){ return true; } else { return false; } }

 <!doctype html> <html> <head> <link rel=stylesheet id="style" href='style.css'/> </head> <body> <script src="phone.js"></script> <script> phone(); </script> </body> </html>

The external function won't run when the page opens why is that? I even tried doing onload but nothing happened. When the page opens it should print in the console either true or false but absolutely nothing is printed.

Answer 1

You are not actually printing the result. You need to change to this:

    <script>
        console.log( "Is phone: " + phone() );
    </script>
