I have spent hours searching through the other questions similar to this one and have tried all the suggested solutions and nothing seems to work. What I am trying to do is pull postings from my database in regard to careers. When the user finds a career they want to apply for, they click the button and the title & job posting are transferred to the next page (via ajax post) for inclusion into the database on successful application. The code I currently have seems to pull the information correctly, but on clicking the button nothing happens. Please assist!
Note: The ajax call is towards the bottom of the file. I included the entire file in case there were any questions relating to it.
Note 2: I have tried .on('click'..., .onclick, and .click. I have tried using a div to point to the buttons, I have tried using various ways to reference the button, and I have tried preventDefault(), and various combinations of these.
