ReferenceError: Can't find variable: bootbox

Question

I'm trying to use the Bootbox plugin, but I can't make it work, this is my import code:

    <script src="jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="bootstrap.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="ui-bootbox.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

then HTML:

<p>Content here. <a class="alert" href=#>Alert!</a></p>

and Javascript:

    $(document).on("click", ".alert", function(e) {
        bootbox.alert("Hello world!", function() {
            console.log("Alert Callback");
        });
    });

But when I click the link, this is the error in the console:

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: bootbox

how I can to fix this?

thanks

The problem is your bootbox.js is corrupted. Get a copy from the cdn. It should work.

$(document).on("click", ".alert", function(e) {
  bootbox.alert("Hello world!", function() {
    console.log("Alert Callback");
  });
});
