This code doesn't seem to fire this button. What's going wrong?

Question

I'm working on something for a client and an agency have built a small bit of jQuery to fire off a DoubleClick Floodlight Tag but for some reason the tag doesn't work: ``` ``` To me this script looks fine, but in a live environment the call to "`ad.doubleclick.net`" is never made? Any help would be much appreciated. Strangely the tag was working until this weekend but now is not recording any actions? EDIT: I did a `console.log(Page_IsValid)` which returned `True`. EDIT: Here is the HTML for the button in question: ```

Accepted Answer

You already have the function on document ready, your problem is that you are calling the function in a wrong way, if you want to call the function like that you should declare it as a function expression (see Function Expressions in this link for more info):

```
$(function () {

var fireFloodlight = function()  {
    if (true) {
        var axel = Math.random() + "";
        var a = axel * 10000000000000;
        $("body").append('<img src="http://tejedoresdesuenos.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/google.jpg" width="50" height="10" alt=""/>');
        alert('ello');
    }
}

$('#trackingButton').click(fireFloodlight);

});
```

a working example.
