Question

I have two strings
Listing1(one in html format)

<ul>
    <li id="1"></li>
    <li id="2"></li>
    <li id="3"></li>
    <li id="4"></li>
    <li id="5"></li>
    <li id="6"></li>
</ul>

Listing2(one in json format)

{1:"r1",4:"r2"}

I need to fill the html string with the json data provided in listing 2 based on json key and id in html.
Can any one help me to solve this issue.

Thanks

Answer 1

JS/JQuery part pseudocode

$(document).ready(function() {
     //iterate over the json data; pick up the id and value.
     for(key in jsonData)
     {
        $('#key').val(jsonData[key]);
     }
});

Using JQuery is not necessary though.

That’s the easier way to solve your problem. Why you need to handle this in Java?
