ReferenceError: CryptoJs is not defined

I tried to hash a text in client-side. I used following code to hash it, but it shows this Reference Error.

<html>

<head>
  <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/crypto-js/3.1.9-1/md5.js">
  </script>
</head>

<body>
  <script>
    var plaintext = "hiii";
    var encrptedText = CryptoJs.md5(plaintext);
    alert("Encrpted Text : " + encrptedText.toString());
  </script>
</body>

</html>

Solution

  • Use the entire package - not just the md5 module - change the src in your script tag 

    <html>
<head>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/crypto-js/3.1.9-1/crypto-js.js"></script></head>
<body>
<script>
var plaintext="hiii";
var encrptedText = CryptoJS.MD5(plaintext)
alert("Encrpted Text : "+ encrptedText.toString());
</script>
 </body>
</html>
