Custom Tab not firing click event

Extending Umbraco and using the API

Umbraco 7
Hi folks,

I wonder if someone could help me out please. Basically I've created a custom section in the Umbraco back office. When this section is selected a htm page is loaded in.

This HTM page has a clickable link in there but when the link is clicked the scripting that I've chained the event isn't firing i.e. It's just behaving link a normal link.
```
<p>This is the salesforce loading page</p>

<a id="clickME" href="#">Click Me</a>


<script>
    $('#clickME').click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        alert("Button Clicked");
    }
</script>
```
Could anybody assist please?

Thanks, C

Hi!

It looks like the eventhandler that you are creating should work.... not sure - have you looked at the console-out? Any errors?

I would recommend you to implement a AngularJS-controller and use that for your front end and skit jQuery.

I've blogged about this here: http://www.enkelmedia.se/blogg/2013/11/22/custom-sections-in-umbraco-7-%E2%80%93-part-2-the-views.aspx

Note that the scripts are inline in the view - you should consider to move them you a js-file and add that file to your package.manifest-file so that Umbracos backoffice loads the file.
