I am trying to bold text with a click on a button. I created it in JS Fiddle and it works fine. However, the issue is when I put the script on the web page. It performs the action but it does not hold the click event



https://jsfiddle.net/lvwiseguy/v7jm03zu/7/



<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<script src="jquery-3.3.1.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function()
$('#BoldText').click(function ()
document.execCommand('bold');
);
);
</script>
<style>
#editable_textarea
width: 100%;
height: 150px;
border: 1px solid blue;


button
font-weight: bold;

</style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<button id="BoldText">B</button>
<div id='editable_textarea' contenteditable="true">
Select text and click the button to make it bold...
</div>
</form>
</body>

  • You have id="form1" there, does it mean you also have id="form2" with exactly the SAME child elements inside it?

  • @AlonEitan no form1 is the default id you an aspx page is created.
