Question

I have a listbox that’s populated by jQuery & JSON like this:

$(function(){
  $.getJSON("jsonulmeu.php", function(j){
    var options = 'Selectati valoare';
    for (var i = 0; i < j.length; i++) {
      options += '<option selected value="' + j[i].idx + '">' + j[i].txt + '</option>';
    }
    $("select#listbox").html(options);
  });
});

When it displays the pointer is at the last row in list. How can I “rewind”, and make the listbox start with the first value?

Answer 1

$(function(){
$.getJSON("jsonulmeu.php", function(j){
  var options = 'Selectati valoare';
  for (var i = j.length-1; i >= 0; i--) {
    options += '<option selected value="' + j[i].idx + '">' + j[i].txt + '</option>';
  }
  $("select#listbox").html(options);
});
