Javascript function does not exist during runtime

Question

I have a Javascript function in a separate jsp file: (used <jsp:include> for file inclusion)

function tickMembership(code){}

when invoked using onclick in an html element, the following error occurs:

Uncaught ReferenceError: tickMembership is not defined

Any idea on how this might happen? The script is there even when inspecting the sources in the browser. I am using Google Chrome.

Can you post the resulting HTML? Can you confirm the Javascript is loaded using Chrome's Developer Tools -> Network? — Jasper de Vries

Attach the eventListener on load of the dom.

or if you are inserting the html dynamically you can use jquery 'on' method.

Apparently, from the information he posted, there was nothing wrong with the event listener. The onclick event obviously fires, so the problem should lie somewhere else.

It is a caching issue the browser is caching the .JS file clear the browser cache and try

Happy Coding.
