I'm not at all experienced with Javascript so I'm guessing that this
will turn into less of a WordPress problem and more of a javascript
problem. I'm looking to run a javascript function when the publish
button on the post editor page is clicked. I came up with the
following which doesn't appear to work.
function tc_print_js() {
?>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var el = document.getElementById("publish");
el.onclick = showTC;
function showTC() {
//do stuff here...
window.open("www.google.com");
}
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('admin_print_scripts-post-new.php','tc_print_js');
add_action('admin_print_scripts-post.php','tc_print_js');
A little debugging seems to indicate that
document.getElementById("publish") returns null but I've got idea why.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
James
