javascript - addEventListener() Not Working - can't figure out why -
wrote super basic script try out addeventlistener , it's not working ...
why?
here's code:
<html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8" /> <title></title> <script> function validateme(){ document.getelementbyid("button1").addeventlistener("click",validateform); function validateform(){ alert("wheeeeee!"); } window.addeventlistener("load",validateme); } </script> </head> <body> <form name="" id="" action="" onsubmit="return validateme"> first name: <input type="input" name="first_name" id="first_name" /> <br /><br /> last name: <input type="input" name="last_name" id="last_name" /> <br /><br /> email address: <input type="input" name="email" id="email" /> <br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="validate" id="button1" /> </form> </body> </html>
it seems you're trying add function within function itself. function not executed, therefore not added. try moving addeventlistener statement outside of function block. or, make function anonymous , declare inside addeventlistener call.
edit: see executed on submit. load phase has passed adding @ point won't anything.
