Window.onclick

i have this weird issue where window.onclick is not triggering my code looks something like this

window.onload = () => {
window.onclick = function() {
    console.log('Click event triggered');
    // Your code here
};
}

window.onload = () => {
window.onclick = function() {
    console.log('Click event triggered');
    // Your code here
};
}

I'm guessing maybe "something like" isn't quite close enough cause that works as expected

yes its working fine on code pen, not sure why not working on my project

Jochem•14mo ago

is this the exact code in your project?

Aldrin•14mo ago

it's stopPropagation with a capital P

Aldrin•14mo ago

still not woking

Mannix•14mo ago

exact same code btw 🤣

Jochem•14mo ago

well, when I put stoppropagation in the codepen, I got a console error. Do you get any errors in your console?

Aldrin•14mo ago

no actually its not triggering only

Jochem•14mo ago

then there's not much we can do without a running example that shows the problem it's likely a syntax error somewhere. That stopPropagation thing definitely is one, but if there's others the method might not be getting added I can't spot one in your screenshot, but I'm also not a javascript engine so I might be missing something

there's tips in #how-to-ask-good-questions for sharing your code

Aldrin•14mo ago

can't share the whole project here, so shared a small part

Jochem•14mo ago

when you only share a part, you have to make sure the problem still exists though 🙂 it's like taking your friend's car to the mechanic and saying "mine doens't work, fix it please"
