Hi folks. Been searching google and forums for a while and unable to find this result. Here's a quick simple piece of code to explain.

Code:
<html>
<head>
<script>
  function myFunc() {
    alert('hello');
  }
  function ajaxCall() {
    //performing ajax call here and using innerHTML to place response in <div> below
  }
</script>
<body>
  <div id="textFromAjax"></div>
</body>
</html>

So my issue is this. In the ajax response I have a button with an onClick event trying to fire the myFunc function on the main page. I assume that the ajax response is not binding with the calling page. Any ideas here? Much thanks in advance.
 
Possibly because your "example" code does not have an "onclick() event defined anywhere.

Chris, thanks! Yes, I was trying to save some time because I was certain the issue had to do with binding the javascript being brought in and placed on the page with innerHTML. Had I posted the actual onClick() event in my code, you would have noticed a missing quotation mark.. Appreciate the response though. Thanks!!
