Writing inside a .html using JQuery and an if Statement in Javascript

Question

I have a HTML with my Tic Tac Toe field. With several onlick's

HTML (game.html):

<table class="nes-table is-bordered is-centered" id="tttpattern">
             <tbody>
             <tr>
                 <td class="square" id="0.0" onclick="gameController.putScore('0.0')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="0.1" onclick="gameController.putScore('0.1')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="0.2" onclick="gameController.putScore('0.2')"></td>
             </tr>
             <tr>
                 <td class="square" id="1.0" onclick="gameController.putScore('1.0')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="1.1" onclick="gameController.putScore('1.1')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="1.2" onclick="gameController.putScore('1.2')"></td>
             </tr>
             <tr>
                 <td class="square" id="2.0" onclick="gameController.putScore('2.0')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="2.1" onclick="gameController.putScore('2.1')"></td>
                 <td class="square" id="2.2" onclick="gameController.putScore('2.2')"></td>
             </tr>
             </tbody>
         </table>

When I click on one of the onclick's, my code runs the putScore function inside my gameController.js.

Inside this js I want to check if the used user_id inside my payload is the same as the player1 ID I get from my DB.

If this is the case my programm should write an X in the square I clicked. But it doesn't.

Does anybody got an Idea how I can write the X inside the square?

putScore function (gameController.js)

putScore: function (option) {
        gameModel.putScore(APP.route.param.gameID, {"field" : option}).then(function (data) {

                  if (APP.payload.user_id === data.player1) {
                      $("#" + data.field).text("X");
                  } else {
                      $("#" + data.field).text("O");
                  }
        }).catch(function(e) {APP.logError(e)});
    }

Did I made any mistake?

I think the important part is this: $("#" + data.field).text("X");

Answer 1

Is there a reason you aren't using option natively rather than complicating it using jquery?

document.getElementById(option).innerHTML = "X";

Would do the trick here?
