Basically $ is an alias of jQuery() so when you try to call/access it before declaring the function, it will endup throwing this $ is not defined error . This usually indicates that jQuery is not loaded and JavaScript does not recognize the $. Even with $(document).ready , $ is still going to be undefined because jquery hasn't loaded yet. To solve this error: Load the jQuery library at the beginning of all your javascript files/scripts which uses $ or jQuery, so that $ can be identified in scripts . There can be multiple other reasons for this issue: Path to jQuery library you included is not correct The jQuery library file is corrupted Working offline Conflict with Other Libraries http://net-informations.com/jq/iq/defined.htm
