Question

I have an ajax that is successfully passing things into my controller

var ids = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam','selarrrow');
if (ids.length>0) {
    var names = [];
    for (var i=0, il=ids.length; i < il; i++) {
        var name = grid.jqGrid('getCell', ids[i], 'uniqueIdentifyingName');
        names.push(name);
    }
}

Then I created an alert that spits this out so I know they are in there:

"alex's names: other test,test"

Now I would like to pass as data.

I am currently passing them using ajax using

data: {'names':JSON.stringify(names)},
dataType: 'json'

But I can’t parse it in the grails controller

I am currently doing this:

List<JSON> Mynames = JSON.parse(params.names)
Mynames.each{println "MY name is: $Mynames"}

Which is outputting:

MY name is: [other test, test]
MY name is: [other test, test]

How can I parse this?

Answer 1

Instead of printing the whole Mynames object in each iteration, print out the current item using it

Mynames.each{ println "MY name is: $it" }
