I have a JSP page which includes javascript file as below: 

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://siteAddress/scripts/myJsFile.js"></script>

myJsFile.js has a method testFireFox()

There is a link on JSP which that calls this method. 

 <a href="#" onClick="testFireFox()">Some Text...</a>

As soon as i click on the link, nothing happens and this error appears on console:

Refrence Error: testFirefox() is not definedI tried giving the path for JS file in various ways but it did not help.

Note: This works absolutely fine in Internet Explorer.

I have not added Javascript to document.ready or onLoad event. It is simply been referred in <Head> 

tag any pointers pls..
