Question

Alright I’m a little lost.

I’ve a page that pulls a value out of a database which is then being loaded into a variable, ticketNum. Basically I just need to generate the same div/content every time based on this number. I’m at a loss as it how to do it.

If the ticketNum is 10, I need 10 divs, if it’s 3, I need 3 and so on.

$(document).ready(function(){
 var ticketNum = 10;

 if (ticketNum > 0) {

   } else {

   }

});

You can use a for loop:

if (ticketNum > 0) {
    for (i=0; i < ticketNum; i++) {
        $('<div id="addedDiv_num' + i + '" />').text('Div number:  ' + i).appendTo('#containerElement');
    }
}
