I am new to jQuery, but understand enough to have already begun
targeted experimentation. I have run into a snag. In brief, I am
trying to call a function from a .JS file that contains no jQuery and
assign it to an HTML tag in a Dreamweaver template via jQuery that is
located in a different .JS file. The code is as follows:
JQUERY CODE
$(document).ready(function() {
$("div").filter("#today").toDate();
});
The expression toDate() is the function that I try to call.
MY DREAMWEAVER TEMPLATE (HEAD TAG)
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/
libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="imagine.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="primer.js"></script>
MY DREAMWEAVER TEMPLATE (BODY TAG)
<div id=today"></div>
The FUNCTION in MY NON-JQUERY .JS FILE
function toDate() {
var someDay = new Date();
var anyDay = new Array();
var anyMonth = new Array();
anyDay[0] = "Sunday";
anyDay[1] = "Monday";
anyDay[2] = "Tuesday";
anyDay[3] = "Wednesday";
anyDay[4] = "Thursday";
anyDay[5] = "Friday";
anyDay[6] = "Saturday";
anyMonth[0] = "January";
anyMonth[1] = "February";
anyMonth[2] = "March";
anyMonth[3] = "April";
anyMonth[4] = "May";
anyMonth[5] = "June";
anyMonth[6] = "July";
anyMonth[7] = "August";
anyMonth[8] = "September";
anyMonth[9] = "October";
anyMonth[10] = "November";
anyMonth[11] = "December";
document.write("<p>Today's Date:<br />" + anyDay[someDay.getDay()] +
", " + someDay.getDate() + " " + anyMonth[someDay.getMonth()] + " " +
someDay.getFullYear() + "</p>");
}
Can you find my error? If so, can you explain what I am doing wrong
and explain how to overcome it?
