I am using a php file ( not HTML ). I want to create a button and call a function when I click it. I try it but onclick is not working.
My code:
echo "<input type= 'button' value='save' onclick='save()'>";
echo " <script>
function save(){ alert('save func');}
</script>";
edit 1: in the web console: save is not defined. The error occures from:
onclick='save()';
i try:
onclick='javascript:save()';
but, the same error.
You have a couple things wrong in your code. Change it to:
echo "<input type='button' value='save'
onclick='save()'>";
echo "<script>
function save(){ alert('save func');}
</script>";
Here is what I changed:
< and input;\ to / in the </script>.Since you said that it wasn't working, I assume that the missing space was a typo in the question only, so the main problems in your code were: the uppercase F in function and using \ where it should be /.

Tags are enclosed by angle brackets, and the closing tag begins with a forward slash.
First of all: you're using HTML
<\script> tag is not correct, use </script> instead< input functionYour code should be something like that
echo "<input type='button' value='save' onclick='save()'>";
echo "<script>
function save(){ alert('save func');}
</script>";
EDIT I copied the code on jsbin, and it works fine! https://output.jsbin.com/ratewijaro
