I am pulling in some JSON data that will vary... for instance:
Data returned could be:
[{"userID":"2779","UserFullName":" Absolute Pro-Formance"},{"userID":"2780","UserFullName":" AR Fabrication"},{"userID":"2781","UserFullName":" Banda Lucas Design Group"}]
or:
[{"orderID":"112958","OrderName":"Order ID: 112958"},{"orderID":"112957","OrderName":"Order ID: 112957"},{"orderID":"112956","OrderName":"Order ID: 112956"}]
What I am attempting to do is process this JSON to build a <select>
list.
// Load in a drop-down as JSON
function LoadDropDown($url, $where, $id, $selectName){
var $loading = '<div class="pageLoader" style="margin:0 auto !important;padding:0 !important;"><img src="/assets/images/ajax-loader.gif" alt="loading..." height="11" width="16" /></div>';
var $t = Math.round(new Date().getTime() / 1000);
var $container = jQuery($where);
var options = {
url: $url + '?_=' + $t,
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
beforeSend: function(){
$container.html($loading);
},
success: function(data, status, jqXhr){
$html = '<select class="form-control" id="'+$selectName+'" name="'+$selectName+'">';
$html += '<option value="0">- Select an Option -</option>';
for(var i = 0; i < data.length-1; ++i) {
var item = data[i];
console.log(item.userID);
}
$html += '</select>';
$container.html('<pre>' + data + '</pre>');
},
complete: function(jqXhr, status){},
error: function(jqXhr, status, error){
$container.slideDown('fast').html('<div class="alert alert-danger alert-dismissable"><button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-hidden="true">×</button><i class="fa fa-exclamation-triangle fa-4x pull-left"></i><p><strong>Danger Will Robinson!</strong><br />There was an issue pulling in this page. Our support team has been notified, please check back later.</p></div>');
}
};
jQuery.ajax(options);
}
The issue I am having is... #1 console.log(item.userID);
always shows undefined
, and #2 how can I effecitvely dynamically build the options? The returned JSON will ALWAYS contain 2 items per row
and id
, and a name
UPDATE
for(var $key in data){
var $val = data[$key];
for($j in $val){
console.log('name:' + $j + ' = ' + $val[$j]);
}
}
Is showing me what I need in Firefox Console... But 1 item per line, for each (for example the 1st JSON) name:userID = 1234
next line name:UserFullName = TheName
How can I get them so I can build my <options>
?
With:
for(var k in data) {
console.log(k, data[k]);
}
I am returned:
2955 Object { orderID="8508", OrderName="Order ID: 8508"}
and
2955 Object { userID="1355", UserFulleName="Me Myself And I"}
