I have problems calling functions "onclick".

Is it appropriate to use this methodology? It tells me (function name) that it is not defined. While on other pages it works for me. I am learning. I have read that it is "bad" to use "onclick" and that it is better to use: $(document).on('click', '#id', function (){

If I use "$(document).on('click..." never problem. However, it suits me to "call" the function since this way I can pass parameters. Is there a way for "onclick" to work fine? In almost all popular browsers? What does it depend on if it works well? What matters because it fails?

If you want to keep using onclick, it allows for variables.

For example, this works

<html>
<head></head>
<body onclick="alert('bruh')">x</body>
</html>

However, I think the current standard is to use event listeners. So in that case, it would be

document.body.addEventListener('click',()=>{alert("bruh")})
<html>
<head></head>
<body>x</body>
</html>

  • Yes, but calling functions (I don't know if the term "call" is correct). The truth, I was 1 hour trying to see why it marked me (function name) as "undefined". I couldn't see what the error was, but now it works for me. Between copy and copy desasher and undo, I lost and couldn't see the fault. – motocross May 30 '21 at 05:12
  • Between copy and paste everything, in the head, below, I use jquery, I don't know what I did, but now it works for me, as I said, between ctrl + z and ctrl + y and, in one way or another it worked. I have seen if, in the forum, that the exact same thing happened to others, marks the function as "undefined" – motocross May 30 '21 at 05:13
