You must declare the variable with its function before trying to use it...

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
  var click = () => {
    alert("Clicou");
  };
  document.getElementById("test").addEventListener("click", click, true);
}, false);
<input type="button" value="test" id="test">

  • I get it. However, I thought that when declaring the variable that stores the anonymous function with var, it would be of global scope being accessed from any part of code even though it was declared before use. Thank you
