Question

I have a small problem, I know how to do what I do in PHP but not sure how to achive that in JSP, can anyone help?,

basically here is my code in php:

<script type="text/javascript">
....
....

<?php

$order_items = getCurrentAttribute('confirmation','orderitems');
$order_items = explode('||',$order_items);
$fo_order_items = array();
foreach($order_items as $item)
{
    $item = explode('|',$item);
    if(!$item[0]) continue;

    $fo_order_items[$item[0]] = array(
        $item[3],(int) $item[4],$item[1]
    );
}

?>

var fo_order_items = <?php echo json_encode($fo_order_items); ?>
....
....
....
</script>

and here you can find an example of how order_items variable looks at the beginning:

sku1|title1|size1|price1|quantity1||sku2|title2|size2|price2|quantity1

Thanks in advance.

P.S.
don’t worry about getCurrentAttribute() function, its already done in JSP

cheers,

Answer 1

String items[] = order_items.split("||") ;

List<String> list = Arrays.asList(items); 
HashMap map = new HashMap();
for( String i : list )
{ 
    String it[] = i.split("|");
    if(!it[0].equals(null)) continue;
     map.put(it[0] , new Object(){ it[3] , it[4] , it[1]});


}

// i guess it may help
// for json encoding look at JSON – LIB or GSON lib
