JavaScript won't work if placed inside the body of a web page?
Question
I'm new to JavaScript and I've learned that JavaScript can be place between the <head></head> or <body></body> sections, I have been working in a project and it works fine inside the head but not the body section of the page.
examples:
working fine like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Example Page</title>
<script>
function yetAnotherAlert(textToAlert) {
alert(textToAlert);
}
yetAnotherAlert("Hello World");
And is not working this way:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Example Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
function yetAnotherAlert(textToAlert) {
alert(textToAlert);
}
yetAnotherAlert("Hello World");
</script>
</body>
</html>

Your code snippet didn't show you closing the tag. Double check if you close your script block correctly.
It's also better to specify the type of scripting language too.
<script language='javascript'>
....
</script>
