Question

Why doesn't my <script> tag work from php file? (jQuery involved here too)

Answer 1

+2 A:

Make sure that you have that within either <head> or <body> of the HTML page. Also, I'd double check the path to the .js file. You could do that by pasting "pageControl.js" at the root of your web address.

"Make sure that you have that within either or of the HTML page." Could you elaborate on that a little? Not sure what you mean.

Oops, forgot the all important code tags there.

Answer 2

+1 A:

It probably isn't looking where you think it is looking to grab your javascript file.

Try a server-relative format like this:

<script src="/some/path/to/pageControl.js"></script>

If that still isn't working, verify that you can type the url to your script file into your browser and get it to download.

I can get to the script file using the url and get the option to download. Thanks for that though. Didn't think of trying that. Using a server-relative path as you described above though, doesn't seem to help.
