If I have the some data being returned from my ajax call. I need to loop through and create an Html string that creates a table like:
ID NAME Object Type
==============================================
1 SWT-F1-S32-RTR-1 Network Switch
2 SWT-44-SR1-RTR-1 Network Switch
etc.
Here’s what my json data looks like:
[

"id": "1",
"dict_value": "Network switch"

{

EDIT 1
Here’s the code I have so far:
$.ajax({
url:"<?php echo site_url('switches/getallswitches/');?>",
type:'POST',
dataType:'json',
success: function(returnDataFromController) {
var htmlstring;
htmlstring="<select name='L2Locations' id='L2Locations'>";
htmlstring = htmlstring + "<option value='all'>All</option>";
//console.log(returnDataFromController);
var JSONdata=returnDataFromController;
console.log(JSONdata);
if (JSONdata.length != 0)
{
$.each(JSONdata, function(i, objswitch) {
var row = $('<tr class="alt2 section_1">').appendTo($('#table'));
row.append($('<td>').append($('<strong>').text(objswitch.name)));
$.each(objswitch.id, function(j, comparisonValue) {
row.append($('<td>').text(comparisonValue));
});
});
}
}//success
});//end ajax
It’s based on the example in the other post. But i’m not sure how to convert “row” into an html string so i can ultimately do something like (#nameofdiv).html(htmlstring).
Sorry to all the guys who have read this post so far. It’s been a crazy day and not that you have to check my other posts before you make nasty remarks, but for what it’s worth, i have been working on some interesting ajaax problems with others on stackoverflow today. And I guess I was just too quick to hit enter. I got nailed immediately! wow. Anyways. Thanks for being patient. Hopefully, this post is a little clearer.
The problem was that the table name referenced in the loop was incorrect.
