Why is this easier-than-hello-world angularjs application not working?


I'm following a pluralsight tutorial to learn angularjs, and I'm already stuck on the first video.

The tutorial uses plunker, here is the link to my code

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

  <head>
    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.14/angular.min.js"></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
    <script src="script.js"></script>
  </head>

  <body ng-app>
    <h1>Hello Plunker!</h1>
    {{ 843 / 42 }}
  </body>

</html>

I followed the instructions, clicked the button to add angularjs to my html doc (i.e. it just adds the link in the header and the ng-app to the body tag) but it is not working.

In the video, he types {{ 843 / 42 }} and it prints to the page 20.07.... whereas mine is just printing {{ 843 / 42 }}.

I can't start learning about angularjs until I figure out why my code is not working, but I can't figure out why my code is not working until I learn more about angularjs...


Solution

  • I was listening to the same video and I had the same issue. I started by using the latest angular js file.

    I then tried to use the same Angular JS file he was using and then it worked fine.
