How can I use jQuery?
-
Hello. I’m new to this, so please forgive what may be an obvious question to the better informed.
I have something that I wrote in D3 with Dimple, which I am trying to integrate into my WordPress-based website. I have installed the D3 plugin, and got this tutorial to work. But my own code includes includes a jQuery function, queue();
queue() .defer(d3.tsv,"https://url.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/ClassScoreData.txt") .await(analyze);
The function queue() triggers a console error, “Uncaught ReferenceError: queue is not defined”.
I have included the dimple js file. I have also tried including the jquery js file, although I get the impression that that is the wrong approach, and that I need to reference the standard WordPress copy instead. Based on what I read, I added the following to my theme’s header.php file:
<?ph <?php wp_enqueue_script('jquery'); ?>
I added it in the <head> section, immediately before:
<?php wp_head(); ?>
It seems like this is supposed to load jQuery, making it available for use. But I’m having difficulty following the articles I’ve found on this topic, and in any event I must be doing something wrong as I can’t get it to work.
Thanks for any advice.
