Function not Firing From Button

ipeebles

Good afternoon.  I have an application where I am tying a function to a button.  When the button is pressed, I want the window/application to close.  For some reason, I am getting the message that exitApplication is not defined.  Here is my simple code:

JavaScript

  // Exit Application if User does not Acknowledge

  function exitApplication() {

     window.close();

  }

HTML Portion

<div dojotype="dijit.form.Button" id="buttonExit" data-dojo-type="dijit/form/Button" type="button" style="align-content: center" onclick="exitApplication();">Close</div>

I have this working in another application (JavaScript 3.9 API).  I am now trying to get this to work using the JavaScript 3.13 API.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Is that function defined outside the "require" section of the code?

require([...], function(...){
  //more code
});

function exitApplication() {
    window.close(); 
}

That's usually the issue when this error pops up. Steve Cole​'s answer would probably have the same issue, since that would also be within the require. An alternative would be

registry.byId('buttonExit').on('click', function() { 
    window.close();
});
