"I thought it should have worked but it doesn't"
You cannot pass params like that in a click event
instead of
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#moon").click(myFunction("param"));
$("#earth").click(myFunction("param2"));
function myFunction(param){
alert(param);
}
});
use
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#moon").click(function() { myFunction("param"); });
$("#earth").click(function() { myFunction("param2"); });
});
function myFunction(param){
alert(param);
}
