I am having issues when trying to dynamically add a div upon selecting a checkbox in a Django template. The error message
Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
keeps appearing in the console.
Here is the template code:
{% extends 'base_layout.html'%}
{%load static%}
{% block content %}
<div class="inventory-content">
<div class='category'>
<div>Categories</div>
<div class='category-checkbox'>
{%for category in categories%}
<input type="checkbox" id="{{category.id}}" name="{{category.name}}" value="{{category.id}}">
<label for="{{category.name}}"> {{category.name}}</label><br>
{%endfor%}
</div>
</div>
<div class='items'></div>
</div>
<script>
$('.category-checkbox input[type="checkbox"]').click(function (){
if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
// Add the element to the div with an id identifier
$('.items').append('<div id="[{{category.id}}]">123</div>');
} else {
// Remove the element from the div targeted by the id identifier
$('.items #[{{category.id}}]').remove();
}
});
</script>
{% endblock %}
