Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined Only in Chrome

[mbarandao]

Hello:

Any ideas as to why I cannot get the script to work in chrome? it works fine in safari.

PHP Code:

$(window).load(function(){
$("#rcver").keyup(function() {
    var values = "";
    var colon = ":";
    var sendname = "<?php echo $fname;?>";
    var link = "\n\nGo to www.site.net and Click on Business Leads! (right of screen)";
    var msg2 =" my message is here";
    var msg = (" \n\nThis is ") +sendname +(".") + msg2 +sendname;// +link;//we concacte name and links to message body
   // var msg = " \n\nI Would like to share with you information about an exciting income opportunity. \n\nSincerely, \n"+sendname +link;
    $('#rcver') .each(function() {
        values += ("Hi ")+this.value +colon +msg;
    });
    $("#detailedmsg").val(values);
});

});

for the jquery file, I'm using:

PHP Code:

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.js'></script> 


I also have tried:

PHP Code:

$(document).load(function(){ 


with no luck...

In chrome, I'm getting:

PHP Code:

Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined 


Thanks for the any input!

Do you have an online example? With only the code I cannot see the problem here ...

try $(document).ready(function(){

also "Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined " usually means the jquery file didnt load, or perhaps you have the library linked after the script so it hasnt loaded in the document yet.

You can even shorten that to $(function() {…});

Thanks for the replies!

DanInMa and VIPStephan your suggestion seems to produce the same error; while VIPStephan's works in safari, but DanInMa's does not work on either browser.

Any other suggestions!

You still haven’t shown us your code. Unfortunately we aren’t psychic.

[DanInMa]

yeah if that didnt work we need to see more, definitely. are you using more than one library perhaps?
