Menu
I want to dynamically append data received via an url in JSOn format to my listview. But i can't figure out how it works.
The mobile website retrieve the object in the following format:
[
{"id":1, "start":"2011-10-29T13:15:00.000+10:00", "end":"2011-10-29T14:15:00.000+10:00", "title":"Meeting"}
]
In the .html i have one listview and a function, where i try to append the received data. I show only the body.
<body>
<div>
<ul id="listview">
<script>$.getJSON("url",
function(data){
$.each(data, function(i,data){
i.title.appendTo("#listview");
});});</script>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
Probably it's very easy, but i'm new to web programming and i can't figure out how that i should append the retrieved data.
Can anyone please help me out ?

//make AJAX call to url
$.getJSON("url", function(data){
//declare a variable with which to build our output (it's best to buffer output and only do one append at the end since DOM manipulation is CPU expensive)
var output = '';
//iterate through the data (we could also get rid of the jQuery here by using `for (key in data) {
$.each(data, function(index, value){
//add each value to the output buffer (we also have access to the other properties of this object: id, start, and end)
output += '<li>' + value.title + '</li>';
});
//now append the buffered output to the listview and either refresh the listview or create it (meaning have jQuery Mobile style the list)
$('#listview').append(output).listview('refresh');//or if the listview has yet to be initialized, use `.trigger('create');` instead of `.listview('refresh');`
});
Here is a jsfiddle of the above solution (there is also an example of using for(){} instead of $.each()): http://jsfiddle.net/VqULm/

I'm appending like this..Its working for appending.. It may be helpful for you or others :)
$.each(data.values, function(key, value) {
$('#activity_contacts').append('<li id="activity_contacts" data-id="' + value.contact_id + '">' + value.display_name + '</li>');
$("#activity_contacts").listview("refresh");
});
My entire autocomplete is like this:
function contactSearchForActivities (q) {
$.mobile.showPageLoadingMsg( 'Searching' );
$().crmAPI ('Contact','get',
{'version' :'3', 'activity_sort_name': q, 'return' : 'display_name' },
{
ajaxURL: crmajaxURL,
success:function (data){
if (data.count == 0) {
cmd = null;
}
else {
cmd = "refresh";
$('#activity_contacts').show();
$('#activity_contacts').empty();
}
//console.log(data);
//loop to go through the values in order to display them in a li as a list
$.each(data.values, function(key, value) {
$('#activity_contacts').append('<li id="' + value.contact_id + '" title = "' + value.display_name +'">' + value.display_name + '</li>');
});
$("#activity_contacts li").click(function() {
$('#activity_sort_name').val(this.title);
$('#activity_hidden_id').val(this.id);
$("#activity_contacts").empty();
});
$.mobile.hidePageLoadingMsg( );
$('#activity_contacts').listview(cmd);
}
});
}
