Sweet Alert does not work - javascript

okay, first off, i am new to this. I was instructed to use sweet alert for the alerts in our project. I see to it that it will work so i made a simple one on a different file and made something like the code below, but it's not working. The Sweetalert is not showing. Did i miss something?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/sweetalert/1.1.3/sweetalert.css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
<body>
<script>
swal("Hello World");
</script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/sweetalert/1.1.3/sweetalert.min.js" />
</body>
</html>

You are calling Sweet alert before it has been declared and linked to your HTML document. Move the script reference to sweetalert.min.js to the head of your page. And also, script tags cannot be self closing. You need to close the script tag by doing </script>, like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/sweetalert/1.1.3/sweetalert.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/sweetalert/1.1.3/sweetalert.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script>
swal("Hello World");
</script>
</body>
</html>

alert() script popping up before website's content loads (even though I inserted tag at bottom of html file)

I'm just starting on JavaScript and I'm following along this online course where it claims that if I insert <script> tags at the bottom of the page just before the <body> closing tag I should be able to see the website render first followed by the JavaScript code, but it is actually executing the other way around, the JavaScript code executes first and it's not until after I click "OK" on the message popping up that I'm able to see the website fully rendered.
Here is the code
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
<title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Where to place your JavaScript code.</h1>
</div>
<script src="scripts.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
scripts.js
alert("This text should appear after page is fully rendered");
I honestly don't know if this is how the code is supposed to work. Do alert(); scripts always execute first? Maybe the browser has something to do with it? (I'm using the latest version of Chrome). Anyhow, a well explained answer of what's happening would be much appreciated.
Personally, I would do something more like:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
<title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Where to place your JavaScript code.</h1>
</div>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
alert('This should now load after the page.');
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
The window.onload = fun... says "wait until the page has finished loading". Depending on what the browsers decide to (with images, layout, plugins etc.), this may or may not work for you.
Or even something like:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
<title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Where to place your JavaScript code.</h1>
</div>
<script async defer src="scripts.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
With this example, the async attribute means "grab this script file in the background" and the defer means "wait until the page has loaded to execute it".

How properly insert JavaScript code in to PHP?

I have a PHP based website. I need to add a JavaScript code in to the head. I would like to include the code in to a small JavaScript file and call it from within PHP page. The code starts with <script type="text/javascript"> and ends with </script>. So I tried to save the code in to code.js and in the head of my website's PHP code I put <script type="text/javascript" src="code.js" /> but it didn't work. I am wondering what am I doing wrong?
The content of the PHP page is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title>title of the page</title>
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ropa+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<!--head-->
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head>
<body>
<!----start-wrap---->
<div class="wrap">
<!----start-Header---->
<!----End-Logo---->
<!--body-top-->
code of the huge page
<!----End-wrap---->
</body>
</html>
I need to insert the following JavaScript code instead of the <!--head-->:
<script type="text/javascript">
var _prvar=_prvar||new Object();
(function(pa,s){if(document.getElementById('125456'))return false;
pa=document.createElement('script');pa.type='text/javascript';pa.async=true;pa.id='125456';pa.src='//abcdefg.com/pub.js';
s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(pa,s);})();
</script>
So what I did is placed the code
<script type="text/javascript">
var _prvar=_prvar||new Object();
(function(pa,s){if(document.getElementById('125456'))return false;
pa=document.createElement('script');pa.type='text/javascript';pa.async=true;pa.id='125456';pa.src='//abcdefg.com/pub.js';
s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(pa,s);})();
</script>
in to a code.js and instead of the <!--head-->in the PHP code I inserted <script type="text/javascript" src="code.js" />
The problem is that you have inserted the tag script as a non-templated tag, here is the right form:
<script type="text/javascript" src="code.js"></script>
Obviously, if the .js is located in the right place, it will be loaded.
You haven't seen the tag in your code probably because you've inspected the HTML with an HTML inspector, but that tool is not always capable to show you malformed tags. For be sure to see the right HTML result, you must view the souce code (usually, right click on the web page via browser and "show source code" option is there).
The content of the php page is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title>title of the page</title>
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ropa+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<!--head-->
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head>
<body>
<!----start-wrap---->
<div class="wrap">
<!----start-Header---->
<!----End-Logo---->
<!--body-top-->
code of the huge page
<!----End-wrap---->
</body>

Simple alert command is firing twice. No button. No click

I have one line of JavaScript;
alert('test');
It's included through the following HTML:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>;
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css">
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
It fires the alert box twice. All browsers.
Why?
Is this normal?
Please!
More code is needed to be sure (always list the full example) but while using Google Chrome try placing debugger; before your alert('test'); call and you will be able to compare the call stacks from the first and second passes through the code. This should be enough information to help you figure out why.
You import the same script twice in your HTML, thus running it twice. Remove one of the two script tags and you should be groovy.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
On a separate note - you don't need that semi-colon after the jQuery import.

alert is working but no other code in dreamweaver

I have an image.html file in dreamweaver.
in source code I link an js file called img.js
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>PHOTO</title>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="js/img.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
if an use an alert in img.js
alert("My First Jquery Test");
it shows correctly in web page but if write some javascript code like
<html>
<body>
<p id="p2">Hello World!</p>
<script>
document.getElementById("p2").style.color="blue";
</script>
The paragraph above was changed by a script.
nothing shows..why and how I show this?
The script is working as you can see here.
Report your fully HTML file if still have problem.
Remember:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<p id="p2">Hello World!</p>
<script>
document.getElementById("p2").style.color="blue";
</script>
</body>
</html>
Do it right
edit img.js
window.onload=function(){
alert("My First Jquery Test");
document.getElementById("p2").style.color="blue";
}

Noob attempting js and html coding...and failing miserably

Html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="mapbody.js"></SCRIPT>
</head>
<body>
Click for a message..
</body>
</html>
mapbody.js:
function a_message()
{
alert('I came from an external script! Ha, Ha, Ha!!!!');
}
When I pull up the web page and click the link nothing happens. Both files are in the same folder. What am I missing?
Several things:
HTML-elements should all be lower-case.
The language-attribute in the script-tag is obsolete. Use type="text/javascript" instead.
A JavaScript-function call should go into the onclick-attribute, not the href.
A proper implementation might look like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Is required!</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="mapbody.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<a onclick="a_message();" href="#">Click for a message..</a>
</body>
</html>
Also, binding function-calls to an HTML-Element using the onclick (or any other onXX-attribute) is old-school. Library's like jQuery enable you to use CSS-selectors to bind actions on certain HTML-elements, which allows a full separation of HTML and JavaScript.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>...</title>
</head>
<body>
Click for a message..
<script type="text/javascript" src="mapbody.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Lukas Knuth was faster than me. :)
Works for me (Firefox 8) : http://jsfiddle.net/FCXxU/
Is the URL to your script good?
A simple way to check that is to add an alert('test'); at the beginning of mapbody.js (before the function).
