Function not calling within an onclick event

by

This is a common problem when you first start working with jQuery. The problem here is that you have defined the function within the jQuery scope, which means that it is not accessible by just calling it like a normal function. A solution to your problem is to move your function definition outside the anonymous ready function that you written, like so:

$(document).ready(function() {

    // do your stuff here

});

// define your functions here 
function my_func() {

}

Oh and I would suggest doing the same for your variables that you have defined. Move them outside your ready function as well, because you will have the same problems as you did with your functions.
