I have a button that I paste into the HTML view section of my question text.



<button id="myButton" onclick="myFunction()">Click me</button>



I have the following code in the "Edit Question JavaScript" area:



Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function()

{

/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/



$('#myButton').on('click', () => {

/* change embedded data */

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("clickedButton", "yes");

});





});





And I also created the embedded data variable clickedButton at the start of the survey, with value set to "no".

The problem is, even when I click the button, the value of clickedButton is still equal to no.



What can I do to rectify this?
