I am trying to create an JQM app and are doing so by getting a lot of data from database. When I click on a link from a ajax/json generated calendar list I should then be able to get the info for that event by calling the server and get the data. As it is now I do this in 2 steps like this.
My ajax generated event list:
$.each(groupcalendar, function (i, val) {
output += '<li><a href="#" data-id="' + val.mid + '" id="gotoMatch"><h2>' + val.matchformname + '</h2><p><strong>' + val.matchday + '</strong></p><p>' + val.coursename + '</p><p class="ui-li-aside"><strong>' + val.matchtime + '</strong></p></a></li>';
});
When I click on one of the links I want to goto a page called prematchdata.html and get the data fro that specific event. I do so by first calling the click and get the eventid from data-id like this:
$(document).on('click', '#gotoMatch', function () {
var matchid = $(this).attr("data-id");
$.get("http://mypage.com/json/getmatchinfo.php?matchid="+matchid, function(data) {
localStorage["matchinfo"] = JSON.stringify(data);
$.mobile.changePage( "prematchdata.html", { transition: "slide", changeHash: true} );
}, "json");
});
I save the returned data as localStorage and then uses this data in my pageinit like this:
$(document).on("pageinit", "#prematchdata", function() {
var matchinfo = {};
matchinfo = JSON.parse(localStorage["matchinfo"])
var content = '<h2>'+matchinfo["matchname"]+'</h2>';
$('.infoholder').html(content);
});
It works, although for me it seems like the last 2 steps should be done in one, but i am not sure how to do so? It seems a little bit wrong get data, save locally and then use it? Can't this be done without the $(document).on('click', '#gotoMatch', function () {});?
Hoping for some help and thanks in advance :-)
