PHP: Retrieving JSON via jQuery ajax help
- by iamjonesy
Hey I have a script that is creating and echoing a JSON encoded array of magento products.
I have a script that calls this script using jQuery's ajax function but I'm not getting a proper response.
This is the script that creates the array:
$collection = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
$collection->addAttributeToSelect('name');
$collection->addAttributeToSelect('price');
$products = array();
foreach ($collection as $product){
$products[$product->getPrice()] = $product->getName();
}
header('Content-Type: application/x-json; charset=utf-8');
echo(json_encode($products));
Here is my jQuery:
<select id="products">
<option value="#">Select</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "http://localhost.com/magento/modules/products/get.php",
dataType: "json",
success: function(products)
{
jQuery.each(products,function(price,name)
{
var opt = jQuery('<option />');
opt.val(name);
opt.text(price);
jQuery('#products').append(opt);
});
}
});
});
</script>
I'm getting a response from this but I'm not seeing a any JSON. I'm using firebug. I can see there has been a JSON encoded response but the response tab is emtyp and my select boxes have no options.
Can anyone see and problems with my code?
Here is the response I should get:
{"82.9230":"Dummy","177.0098":"Dummy 2","76.0208":"Dummy 3","470.6054":"Dummy 4","357.0083":"Dummy Product 5"}
Thanks,
Billy
