Fairly basic question here. I've run into a situation where I can't seem to access Javascript functions from within my HTML file, even though I've linked the JS file as a script src. It seems like a pretty simple issue but I can't figure out what the problem is.
I'm trying to add a function called startLogin
to an HTML button. I added it as an onclick
, but then when I try to click the button, the console says the function is undefined. However the function is clearly defined in the JS file and as far as I can tell the syntax I'm using for the onclick
and the script src
link is correct.
In addition I've confirmed that the JS file is linked to the HTML file. If I try to manipulate the DOM from the JS file just to do something simple, like set the background to red, that works fine. The problem is when I try to call a function defined in the JS file. Also I've made sure the function I'm trying to call does actually work. If I stick it right in the HTML file inside script tags, it works fine.
I've already tried moving the script tags inside the body at the end of the HTML, as I know that's often the issue, but in this case it didn't work. Can anyone help me identify why I'm unable to access the "startLogin" function from the HTML button?
FYI, this is a javascript project and I'm using Vite.js for bundling. All the other HTML/JS files in my project are playing nicely together, I'm only having an issue with the Login page.

- 3 You have script type set to module, so functions defined won't leak into the global scope – Jared Smith Commented Nov 19, 2021 at 20:54

Reset to default 10Javascript modules work a bit differently. There, variables and functions are not exposed to the global scope.
If you want to use your function from other parts of the code, you have to set it explicitly on the window
object:
function startLogin(...) {
...
}
window.startLogin = startLogin;
an other solution is to set the js at end of the html, than you don't need to use the window object (memory lag)
<html lang="en">
<head>...</head>
<body>
<button type="button" id="myButton">Title</button>
</body>
<script>
function myFunction(){
console.log('running myFunction');
}
const button = document.querySelector('#myButton');
button.addEventListener('click', function clickListener(
{
myFunction();
}
</script>
</html>
the browser is simply stupid, it loads the page from top to bottom and if you load your js after the body all your html is present and you can do it this way.
