Uncaught ReferenceError: (function) not defined at HTMLButtonElement.onclick

52.5k views Asked by At

The following functions, onColourChange and onWindowChange, should cycle through images on button click. Instead, I get both:

Uncaught ReferenceError: onColourChange is not defined at HTMLButtonElement.onclick

and

Uncaught ReferenceError: onWindowChange is not defined at HTMLButtonElement.onclick

Just move the line:

 <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="../JS/bmwcustom.js"></script>

right before your </body> tag.

First load your HTML elements, then Javascript and it should work.

You have a syntax error in your script and thus the js fails.

You have to separate arrays values with commas, i.e. change

//Car Colour Image
var colourImages =
[
    "../IMAGES/windowsred.jpg"
    "../IMAGES/bmwblue.jpg"
    "../IMAGES/bmwgreen.jpg"
];

//Car Window Image
var windowImages =
[
    "../IMAGES/bmwwindowred"
    "../IMAGESbmwwindowblue"
    "../IMAGES/bmwwindowgreen"
];

to

//Car Colour Image
var colourImages =
[
    "../IMAGES/windowsred.jpg",
    "../IMAGES/bmwblue.jpg",
    "../IMAGES/bmwgreen.jpg"
];

//Car Window Image
var windowImages =
[
    "../IMAGES/bmwwindowred",
    "../IMAGESbmwwindowblue",
    "../IMAGES/bmwwindowgreen"
];
