change your script to:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.sayHi = function() {
alert("Hi");
}
</script>
Likewise, any variables defined in the script block are not evaluated in the
global scope, therefore, they need to be assigned as properties of window or
document. See

Subject: [Proto-Scripty] JavaScript from AJAX response is not being
available
Hi all,
I used Prototype to get an AJAX response fromcalling a JSP page, and set it
as innerHTML of a div.
I tried executing eval on the response separately before going with
Prototype, and seeing that prototype evaluates javascript in the
reponseText, I gave it a spin. However, when I try using the javascript
functionality after setting the innerHTML, still it does not seem to have
got evaluated.
My sample JSP code looks like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function sayHi(){
alert("hi");
}
</script>
<p>test</p>
<input type="button" value="click" onClick="sayHi()">
I do the AJAX call like this on another page of the same app:
new Ajax.Request(page, {
onSuccess: function(reponse) {
document.getElementById('test_div').innerHTML=reponse.responseText;
}
});
When I click the button, I do not get the alert - which I can get if I
accessed the JSP dierctly. Is there something additional I need to do to get
the sayHi() function working in the target div? Or probably I am missing
something trivial altogether.
Appreciate your help on this.
Regards,
-A
