JQuery Click Function Not Working

I'm trying to get my code to click and show an alert, but the code doesn't seem to work. I've written the code here:

https://jsfiddle.net/MGames/9eu94Lau/1/

Here is my html:

<div class="add-cart-button-col col-right">
<a class="checkout-button nsg-button nsg-grad--heeb-orange" href="https://mycheckoutlinkgoeshere.com" data-query="https://linkcheckoutgoeshere.com">
                      CHECKOUT
                    </a>
                  </div>

And here is the code that does not to show the alert after clicking

$(".checkout-button nsg-button nsg-grad--heeb-orange").click(function() {
  alert('hohoho');
});

I would appreciate the help to find out what I'm doing wrong. Thank you.

Edit: This question is different due to the fact that I'm asking for clarification for an error that was present in my code. It's not a duplicate of selecting an element with multiple classes...

Solution

  • 1 forgot to add. before each class.

    2.Remove spaces in between all classes (as you are trying all classes of single element not parent-child)

    Working snippet:-

    $(".checkout-button.nsg-button.nsg-grad--heeb-orange").click(function() {
  alert('hohoho');
});
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="add-cart-button-col col-right">
  <a class="checkout-button nsg-button nsg-grad--heeb-orange" href="https://mycheckoutlinkgoeshere.com" data query="https://linkcheckoutgoeshere.com">CHECKOUT</a>
</div>
