I have created Ubuntu 14.04 droplet, and have manualy installed apache, php, and mysql (as described here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu-14-04). I have also transfered my DB’s and web to this new droplet. Now, i cant seem to execute the jquery code properly. eg: I have html: <input type=submit name=SAVE id=SAVE value=“0” style=“display:none;” /></form><div class=button onClick=“document.getElementById(‘SAVE’).click()”>Save</div> and JS: $(“#frm”).submit(function(event) { console.log(‘starting’); event.preventDefault(); var posting = $.post( ‘content_add_proc.php’, $(this).serialize() ); posting.done(function( data ) { alert(data); console.log(data); loadadm(‘content.php’,‘#top03’); }); }); I never get ‘starting’ in the console. Nor any errors for that matter.
howewer if i replace the div with this: <div class=button onClick=“console.log(‘test’);”>Save</div> and click it, i get the ‘test’ in the console so the DIV.click triggers, but the function doesn’t execute
before you ask, there is the <form id=frm name=frm … > tag
i’ll repeat: it’s only copy paste from one server to another

It’s hard to say with out looking at more code. Is the submit handler wrapped in “$(document).ready”? This works for me on 14.04:
<br>
<br><pre>
<br><html>
<br> <head>
<br> <meta content=“text/html;charset=utf-8” http-equiv=“Content-Type”>
<br> <meta content=“utf-8” http-equiv=“encoding”>
<br> <script type=“text/javascript” src=“https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js”></script>
<br> <script>
<br>
<br> $(document).ready(function(){
<br> $( “#frm” ).submit(function( event ) {
<br> console.log(“Handler for .submit() called.”);
<br> });
<br> });
<br>
<br> </script>
<br> </head>
<br> <body>
<br>
<br> <form id=“frm” name=“frm”>
<br> <input type=submit name=SAVE id=SAVE value=“0” style=“display:none;”/>
<br> </form>
<br>
<br> <div class=button onClick=“document.getElementById(‘SAVE’).click();”>Save</div>
<br>
<br> </body>
<br></html>
<br></pre>
<br>
<br>As the JavaScript executes in the user’s browser, it really shouldn’t matter what version of Ubuntu the server is running.
