Question

I am having trouble figuring out how to handle a json response. I just need to take all of the html part and put it into a div. So I can see in console the request is successful and returns something like :

{"goto_section":"review","update_section":{"name":"review","html":" <div> A bunch of html</div>"}}

How do I take this response and put it into my div?

$('my-div').html(response);

Thanks for any help and if you know any good resources where I could learn more I would appreciate it.

Answer 1

$('my-div').html(response.update_section.html);

Also make sure that if you are using $.post or $.get, set the parameter after the callback to be json, or if you are using $.ajax, set dataType:json
