It might be a timing problem. It might take longer to load the file containing the code so that when the inline code is found and executed, the called function is not present. Notice that all the downloads of the bits and pieces of an HTML page proceed asynchronously and not sequentially. You should not assume that the call to a function will be done after the file is downloadad because it shows up later. The browser queues the download of all the external elements in the page, code, pictures, etc while it keeps downloading and processing the main download. They can easily get out of synch. The proper way to include and call javascript code is to include all code in the <head> and then make the call in the onLoad event of the <body> tag. This onLoad event is called when every part of the page is already loaded and, thus, the downloaded javascript file is assured to be available.
