Phonegap plugin - imagePicker - Producing Error Message

I'm trying to add the phonegap imagePicker plugin to my app and am receiving the following error when I try to call the function:

"Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getPictures' of undefined", source: file:///android_asset/www/js/main.js (85)

I installed the plugin using the CLI per the instructions. I have copied the .js to the appropriate folder and referenced it.

Here are the relevant sections of the different pages:

main.js:

$(document).on("pageshow", "#thepageinquestion", function() {
    $("#btn_upload").click(function() {
        window.imagePicker.getPictures( // <--- this is line 85
            function(results) {
                for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
                    console.log('Image URI: ' + results[i]);
                }
            }, function (error) {
                console.log('Error: ' + error);
            }
        );
    }); 
});

imagepicker.js:

cordova.define("com.synconset.imagepicker.ImagePicker", function(require, exports, module) { /*global cordova,window,console*/
/**
 * An Image Picker plugin for Cordova
 * 
 * Developed by Wymsee for Sync OnSet
 */

var ImagePicker = function() {

};

/*
*   success - success callback
*   fail - error callback
*   options
*       .maximumImagesCount - max images to be selected, defaults to 15. If this is set to 1, 
*                             upon selection of a single image, the plugin will return it.
*       .width - width to resize image to (if one of height/width is 0, will resize to fit the
*                other while keeping aspect ratio, if both height and width are 0, the full size
*                image will be returned)
*       .height - height to resize image to
*       .quality - quality of resized image, defaults to 100
*/
ImagePicker.prototype.getPictures = function(success, fail, options) {
    if (!options) {
        options = {};
    }

    var params = {
        maximumImagesCount: options.maximumImagesCount ? options.maximumImagesCount : 15,
        width: options.width ? options.width : 0,
        height: options.height ? options.height : 0,
        quality: options.quality ? options.quality : 100
    };

    return cordova.exec(success, fail, "ImagePicker", "getPictures", [params]);
};

window.imagePicker = new ImagePicker();

});

After beating this up for hours, finally realized the external javascript file wasn't loading. Rookie mistake, I had placed the reference to the script in the page header instead of within the data-role="page" tags.

Found the answer here:

JQuery Mobile Change Page doesnt load JS files
