uncaught reference error function not defined

Question

My print function button doesn't seem to work upon clicking. The print view page does not show.

Here is the html code:

<button class = "hidden-print" id = "print-click">Print New Orders</button>

Here is the js code:

function printNewOrders(){
 window.print();
 $("#print-click").click(printNewOrders);
}

• DIEGO CARRASCAL: put $("#print-click").click(printNewOrders); out of the function.
• Pocholo Delenela Mendoza: the button still does not work. :( @DIEGO CARRASCAL
• Heretic Monkey: Please provide a minimal reproducible example. As demonstrated by the fact that the answers given to you "don't work", we need more information about your setup before we can answer your question.
• DIEGO CARRASCAL: @PocholoDelenelaMendoza, is the button being created dynamically? if it does you need to change the event linker (sound great like that...) from $("#print-click").click(printNewOrders); to $(document).on("click", "#print-click", printNewOrders);
• Pocholo Delenela Mendoza: jsfiddle.net/poch_MENDOZA/7uwm8sd0 i've recreated the issue here. @DIEGO CARRASCAL

Answer 1

Your click event won't be bound unless you call the function printNewOrders. Even though if you call it the page will be printed without user's intervention. So change your code like below,

function printNewOrders(){
 window.print();
}
$("#print-click").click(printNewOrders);

DEMO

• Rajaprabhu Aravindasamy: @PocholoDelenelaMendoza Check the demo attached with this answer. Did you include jquery in your page? Are you seeing any errors?
• Pocholo Delenela Mendoza: I did not include jquery. No errors as well when inspecting element. The function just does not work. Is there any more solutions?
• Rajaprabhu Aravindasamy: @PocholoDelenelaMendoza $("#print-click").click(printNewOrders); This part will not work without jquery. If you want a non-jquery solution. you can use this jsfiddle.net/j8vfftpa/1
• Pocholo Delenela Mendoza: The button still does not function. The print media view still does not come out upon clicking.
• Rajaprabhu Aravindasamy: @PocholoDelenelaMendoza Is your site live? Or can you reproduce your issue in a fiddle?
