If you are using Angular js then functions imbedded into HTML  such as onclick  function    or onchange  function     They will not register  You need to make the change events in the javascript  Such as       exampleBtn   click function       function

In JSFiddle  when you set the wrapping to  onLoad  or  onDomready   the functions you define are only defined inside that block  and cannot be accessed by outside event handlers   Easiest fix is to change   function something        To   window something   function

Change the wrapping from  onload  to  No wrap - in  lt body gt    The function defined has a different scope
