* I have extracted some js code from a working non-WordPress page, and I’m trying
to make it work on my site. It defines a function and then executes a URL with
a callback to that function. I can run the URL without the callback and I see
the data I’m trying to access. It appears that the callback is not executing
my function, as the data never gets displayes. Can someone help me get off square
one? I’m a js novice, so be kind! 🙂
* Here are the entire contents of my page:
