Uncaught TypeError: $.post is not a function
JavascriptJqueryJavascript Problem Overview
I am getting this error in Console:
>Uncaught TypeError: $.post is not a function
for this piece of code:
I just couldn't find anything wrong in this. Why is this not working, any clues?
However, $('#cl_stage1msg').html('Processing...');
is working fine.
Seems like only the post function is not getting recognised.
Javascript Solutions
Solution 1 - Javascript
You are using the slim version of jQuery, which doesn't include the Ajax methods (in your case $.post()
).
Use the non-slim build, available here http://jquery.com/download/, such as:
https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js
From jQuery 3.0 release post:
> Slim build > > [...] Sometimes you > don’t need ajax, or you prefer to use one of the many standalone > libraries that focus on ajax requests.[...] Along with the regular version of jQuery that includes the > ajax and effects modules, we’re releasing a “slim” version [...], it excludes ajax, effects, and > currently deprecated code.
Solution 2 - Javascript
If you use jquery slim version then this problem will occur. use minified or uncompressed version of jquery js file
