jQuery's ajax() does not work if jQuery is loaded dynamically

I am trying to use jQuery's post() and get() but they are not working. I do not have HTML so I am loading jQuery this way:

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js';
document.head.appendChild(script);

Seems like it is successfully loaded. Checked using window.jQuery in the console.

Right after I create a button:

var btn = document.createElement("button");
btn.id = 'gogogo';
var txt = document.createTextNode("Go");
btn.appendChild(txt);
document.body.insertBefore(btn, document.body.childNodes[0]);

Button successfully created.

Right after this I have the desired post():

$("#gogogo").click(function () {
    var txt = '123';
    $.post("/users", {qwe: txt}, function(result){
            alert(result);
    });
});

But nothing happens at all. NET section in FireBug remains empty while clicking on the button.

Somebody knows what I am doing wrong?

Use .on event of jQuery, As you are dynamically creating element i.e event delegation.

For ex.

$(document).on("click","#gogogo",function () {
    alert("Inside #gogogo event handler");
    var txt = '123';
    $.post("/users", {qwe: txt}, function(result){
            alert(result);
    });
});
