TypeError: jQuery(…).ready(…) is not a function

Question

OK, I know this has been asked before but none of the answers seems to apply to my case. I\'m trying to get a very tiny piece of jQuery running (I\'m just getting started on

Answer 1

try to remove this (); at the end of doc ready:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  jQuery('.comtrig').on('click',function(){
    $(this).next().animate({'display':'inline'},1000);
  });
}); //<----remove the (); from here

(); is normally used to have a Immediately-Invoked Function Expression (IIFE) which has some kind of syntax like this:

(function(){
   // your stuff here
})(); //<----this invokes the function immediately.

Your errors:

in firefox = TypeError: jQuery(...).ready(...) is not a function

in chrome = Uncaught TypeError: object is not a function

because:

Your document ready handler is not a Self-executing anonymous function.
