Run Function from Button

I've been trying to figure out why this isn't working for the past half hour. Apologies if I'm being an idiot, but i just can't seem to make it work!

Javascript:

function cancel(){
alert("working");
}

HTML:

<input type="button" onclick="cancel()" value="Cancel" />

When using JSFiddle, the "wrapping" options enclose your script in a function.

Functions defined in functions are only accessible to that particular function (like a variable declared with var), and therefore cannot be accessed by the button.

Choose one of the "no wrap" options.
