I am copying code from here. My code is essentially identical to the example code except I am running d3.layout.cloud.js on my server. When I run it I am getting a type error that d3.layout.cloud is not a function. What could be the reasons for this?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script src="../lib/d3/d3.js"></script>
<script src="../d3.layout.cloud.js"></script>
<body>
<script>
var fill = d3.scale.category20();
d3.layout.cloud().size([300, 300])
.words([
"Hello", "world", "normally", "you", "want", "more", "words",
"than", "this"].map(function(d) {
return {text: d, size: 10 + Math.random() * 90};
}))
.rotate(function() { return ~~(Math.random() * 2) * 90; })
.font("Impact")
.fontSize(function(d) { return d.size; })
.on("end", draw)
.start();
function draw(words) {
d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", 300)
.attr("height", 300)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(150,150)")
.selectAll("text")
.data(words)
.enter().append("text")
.style("font-size", function(d) { return d.size + "px"; })
.style("font-family", "Impact")
.style("fill", function(d, i) { return fill(i); })
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("transform", function(d) {
return "translate(" + [d.x, d.y] + ")rotate(" + d.rotate + ")";
})
.text(function(d) { return d.text; });
}

- Where is the d3.layout.cloud.js file located on your server? Same directory as your html file? Different directory? – Andy Thornton Commented Apr 3, 2013 at 3:15

Reset to default 7Are you sure you've put d3.cloud.layout.js in the correct folder on your server?
I edited your code to point to files that do exist:
<script src="http://d3js/d3.v3.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://gist.github./emeeks/3361332/raw/61cf57523fe8cf314333e5f60cc266351fec2017/d3.layout.cloud.js"></script>
And it seems to work:

To see if this is causing your problem, open the console in chrome (ctrl-shift-j) and see if there are any "Failed to load resource" errors.
This happened to me because I was loading the cloud layout JS before D3. D3 should be loaded first to fix.
