spin.js doesn't seem to work/ appear
css, html, javascript, jquery, spin.js
Solution
I don't believe that code inside a `script` tag with a src attribute will execute. If you change your code to the following, does it work?
<script type="text/javascript" src="spin.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var opts = ...
...
// all the code that you currently have between <script> and
// </script> goes here
});
</script>
Problem
I'm attempting to use the spin.js library to display a loading animation. However, going off the spin.js developer example I can't seem to get it to work/ appear; this is apparent by the empty div tag when I open my html file in Firefox. Here is my code (spinnertest.html): ``` <html> <head> <script src="spin.min.js"> var opts = { lines: 13, // The number of lines to draw length: 7, // The length of each line width: 4, // The line thickness radius: 10, // The radius of the inner circle corners: 1, // Corner roundness (0..1) rotate: 0, // The rotation offset color: '#000', // #rgb or #rrggbb speed: 1, // Rounds per second trail: 60, // Afterglow percentage shadow: false, // Whether to render a shadow hwaccel: false, // Whether to use hardware acceleration className: 'spinner', // The CSS class to assign to the spinner zIndex: 2e9, // The z-index (defaults to 2000000000) top: 'auto', // Top position relative to parent in px left: 'auto' // Left position relative to parent in px }; var target = document.getElementById("spinner"); var spinner = new Spinner(opts).spin(target); </script> </head> <body> <div id="spinner"> </div> </body> ``` Working code for those interested (requires jquery-1.9.0.min.js and spin.min.js in the same directory): ``` <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="spin.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.9.0.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { var opts = { lines: 13, // The number of lines to draw length: 7, // The length of each line width: 4, // The line thickness radius: 10, // The radius of the inner circle corners: 1, // Corner roundness (0..1) rotate: 0, // The rotation offset color: '#000', // #rgb or #rrggbb speed: 1, // Rounds per second trail: 60, // Afterglow percentage shadow: false, // Whether to render a shadow hwaccel: false, // Whether to use hardware acceleration className: 'spinner', // The CSS class to assign to the spinner zIndex: 2e9, // The z-index (defaults to 2000000000) top: 'auto', // Top position relative to parent in px left: 'auto' // Left position relative to parent in px }; var target = document.getElementById("spinner"); var spinner = new Spinner(opts).spin(target); }); </script> </head> <body> <div id="spinner"> </div> </body> ```
