Where does the JavaScript go?

I am very new at this. Where do I put the JavaScript at to make the chooser appear on my webpage? This link says to use the JavaScript. https://www.dropbox.com/developers/dropins/chooser/js#trigg...

Your button doesn't seem to be hooked up to anything, and you added your JavaScript code inside a <style> tag instead of a <script> tag.

I recommend reading through the Chooser documentation again, and getting some help with the general HTML/CSS/JavaScript development for your page if you're having trouble. That's outside the scope of Dropbox API support of course though, so I can't offer much help there.

I have a simple sample page that uses the Chooser here though:

You can look at the source to see how it works.
