The reason you are getting ReferenceError: require is not defined is because nowhere in your html page is Require included. Require does not come with your standard JavaScript library. You must include the file on your page so it can be loaded and used.

This can be done by simply adding in the or tags. The myJS.js file will, of course, be replaced by the require.js file.

The reason it works when you run with node is because Node already has its own module loader.
