As a begineer i am facing a problem, i followed an advise from several opinions to keep my HTML file clean, so i created a JS file and started migrating all scripts to a it, everything is Ok until i had to make this in it :
<script>
document.getElementById("mobile-toggle").addEventListener("click",function(){
document.getElementById("mobile-date").innerHTML = "Today is ...";});
</script>
When this script in is my HTML file it is run by the browser automatically but when i put it in the JS file, it simply don't work without being called with a function name, and that's what i want to avoid due to unobtrusive javascript recommendations, so my question is "is there a way to make a script from JS file to be run automatically without a call from HTML event ?
Thanks.
Include your script in the HTML with defer attribute. This will run the code when HTML is ready. You could place the script tag at the end before
</body>as well, but I prefer having it on top.in myscript.js
Wrapping this into a function gives your own scope and another wrap into parenthesis and
()at the end will do the execution.
