JQuery on('click') does not work when clicked

So I'm currently working on this project and I am stuck this problem. I tried looking at the console but it doesn't show anything when I clicked the button. What I'm trying to do is when I click the button, it will trigger the file input, but so far, when I clicked it, nothing happens, not even an error is shown.(The code is based on the answer in this question: Bootstrap form upload file layout) Can you guys help me find out what I did wrong

These are the codes

TabUploadDokumen.html

<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
    /* Some code here */
});

$('#btn_IdentitasKTP/Paspor').on('click', function () {
    $('#file_IdentitasKTP/Paspor').trigger('click')
});

$('#file_IdentitasKTP/Paspor').change(function () {
    var file_name = this.value.replace(/\\/g, '/').replace(/.*\//, '');
    $('#text_IdentitasKTP/Paspor').val(file_name);
});
</script>

<!--Some other code -->    
<div class='form-group'>
    <label class='control-label'>Nama Dokumen<br /><span style='font-weight:normal;'>Silahkan scan/foto dokumen Anda disini</span></label>
    <div class='form-group'>
        <label for="text_IdentitasKTP/Paspor" id="lbl_IdentitasKTP/Paspor" class="control-label">Identitas(KTP/Paspor)</label>
    </div>
    <div class="input-group">
        <input type="file" id="file_IdentitasKTP/Paspor" name="name_file_IdentitasKTP/Paspor" accept="image/jpg,image/jpeg,application/pdf,image/png" style="display: none" />
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="text_IdentitasKTP/Paspor" readonly />
        <span class="input-group-btn">
            <button class="btn btn-default" type="button" id="btn_IdentitasKTP/Paspor">Upload KTP/Paspor</button>
        </span>
    </div>`
</div>
<!-- Some other code -->

I'm using ASP.NET MVC 5 and Bootstrap version 3.00 and Jquery version jquery version 1.11.1 if it is any help.

Thanks in advance

it doesn't work because script tag is render before the html elements. it will work if you change the code as below,

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!--Some other code -->
<div class='form-group'>
    <label class='control-label'>Nama Dokumen<br /><span style='font-weight:normal;'>Silahkan scan/foto dokumen Anda disini</span></label>
    <div class='form-group'>
        <label for="text_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" id="lbl_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" class="control-label">Identitas(KTP/Paspor)</label>
    </div>
    <div class="input-group">
        <input type="file" id="file_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" name="name_file_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" accept="image/jpg,image/jpeg,application/pdf,image/png" style="display: none"  />
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="text_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" readonly />
        <span class="input-group-btn">
            <button class="btn btn-default" type="button" id="btn_IdentitasKTP_Paspor" >Upload KTP/Paspor</button>
        </span>
    </div>`
</div>

<script>
    $(document).ready(function () {
        /* Some code here */
    });

    $('#btn_IdentitasKTP_Paspor').on('click', function () {
        $("#file_IdentitasKTP_Paspor").click()
    });

    $('#file_IdentitasKTP_Paspor').change(function () {
        var file_name = this.value.replace(/\\/g, '/').replace(/.*\//, '');
        $('#text_IdentitasKTP_Paspor').val(file_name);
    });
</script>

The on('click') function needs to run in the $(document).ready function, otherwise it will run before the DOM is ready and won't find the element it's supposed to bind to.

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#btn_IdentitasKTP\\/Paspor').on('click', function () {
    $('#file_IdentitasKTP\\/Paspor').trigger('click')
  });
});

(And escape the slashes as suggested in another answer)

Ensure that your jQuery code is sat within your document.ready() function.

Escape the selectors that contain forward slashes (click here for more)

I would also replace

$('#btn_IdentitasKTP/Paspor').on('click', function () {

with 

$('document').on('click','#btn_IdentitasKTP\\/Paspor', function () {

Your selectors contain forward slashes that need to be escaped like this:

$("#btn_IdentitasKTP\\/Paspor'")
