如何迭代JSON对象并附加HTML输入菜单/列表选择

Question

I've searched on here and tried several solutions offered with no luck. I have a html input menu/list select that I want to populate with options after the user inputs into an input text box. Once the user enters the parameter I want javascript to call a php page and return an array/object with the menu options.

sample of my html:

<select name="celestrials" id="celestrials" onFocus="updateCelestrials()">
<option value="Choose...">n/a</option>
</select>

my javascript in the html file(in same folder as the json.php file used in var myURL below):

function updateCelestrials () {
    var orbs = document.getElementById('systemNames').value;

    var myURL = "http://www.domain.com/folder/json.php?solarSystemName="+orbs;

    $.getJSON(myURL, function(data) {
      $.each(data, function() { 
        $("<option value='" + data + "'>" + data + "</option>").appendTo("#celestrials");
      });
    });
}

my array returned by php:

echo json_encode($arrayItems, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT);

and finally my retuned array/object trimmed down for summary:

{"0":"YHN-3K I","1":"YHN-3K II","2":"YHN-3K III"}

Full array:

{"0":"YHN-3K I","1":"YHN-3K II","2":"YHN-3K III","3":"YHN-3K IV","4":"YHN-3K IV - Moon 1","5":"YHN-3K V","6":"YHN-3K VI","7":"YHN-3K VI - Moon 1","8":"YHN-3K VII","9":"YHN-3K VIII","10":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 1","11":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 2","12":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 3","13":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 4","14":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 5","15":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 6","16":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 7","17":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 8","18":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 9","19":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 10","20":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 11","21":"YHN-3K VIII - Moon 12","22":"YHN-3K IX","23":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 1","24":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 2","25":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 3","26":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 4","27":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 5","28":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 6","29":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 7","30":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 8","31":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 9","32":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 10","33":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 11","34":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 12","35":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 13","36":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 14","37":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 15","38":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 16","39":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 17","40":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 18","41":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 19","42":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 20","43":"YHN-3K IX - Moon 21","44":"YHN-3K X","45":"YHN-3K X - Moon 1","46":"YHN-3K X - Moon 2","47":"YHN-3K X - Moon 3","48":"YHN-3K X - Moon 4","49":"YHN-3K X - Moon 5","50":"YHN-3K X - Moon 6","51":"YHN-3K X - Moon 7","52":"YHN-3K X - Moon 8","53":"YHN-3K X - Moon 9","54":"YHN-3K X - Moon 10","55":"YHN-3K X - Moon 11","56":"YHN-3K X - Moon 12","57":"YHN-3K X - Moon 13","58":"YHN-3K X - Moon 14","59":"YHN-3K X - Moon 15","60":"YHN-3K X - Moon 16","61":"YHN-3K X - Moon 17","62":"YHN-3K X - Moon 18","63":"YHN-3K X - Moon 19","64":"YHN-3K XI","65":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 1","66":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 2","67":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 3","68":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 4","69":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 5","70":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 6","71":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 7","72":"YHN-3K XI - Moon 8","73":"YHN-3K XII","74":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 1","75":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 2","76":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 3","77":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 4","78":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 5","79":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 6","80":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 7","81":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 8","82":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 9","83":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 10","84":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 11","85":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 12","86":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 13","87":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 14","88":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 15","89":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 16","90":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 17","91":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 18","92":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 19","93":"YHN-3K XII - Moon 20","94":"YHN-3K XIII","95":"YHN-3K XIII - Moon 1","96":"YHN-3K XIII - Moon 2","97":"YHN-3K XIII - Moon 3"}

Explanation

Insert this instead of data when you create your <option> DOMElements.

The error lies in your $.each() loop, where you tend to try to put the value of the whole data object in your DOMElement everytime you loop.

Try to put only one value instead of the whole object.

 $.each(data, function() { 
     $("<option value='" + this + "'>" + this + "</option>").appendTo("#celestrials");
 });

Note: I'm not using the .length property since the received object might not necessarily have one. It depends whether it is in a valid format or not. As is, it does not seem to be a JSON Object.

for(var i=0; i<Object.keys(data).length; i++) {
    document.querySelector('#celestrials').innerHTML += "<option value='" + data[i] + "'>" + data[i] + "</option>"
}
