I have a JSON object that looks like this.
[
{
"id" : "23", "event_id" : "0", "sport_title" :
null, "event_title" :
null, "title" : "Under 1 day!",
"content" : "It\\'s all hotting up and battle commences in under one day!", "link" : ""
},
{
"id" : "20", "event_id" : "0", "sport_title" :
null, "event_title" :
null, "title" : "Getting Exciting",
"content" : "Less than two days till it all kicks off, with cricket....", "link" : ""
}]
and I am trying to get the details out of this JSON Object and prepend them to a <ul>
the code that I am currently trying looks like this and is having problems
var writeup_list = writeuplist;
$.getJSON('../json/getWriteups.json', function(data) {
$.each(data.items, function(i, item) {
writeup_list.html(function() {
var output;
output = '<li><a href="/writeups/index.php#writeup_' + item.id + '">';
if(item.sport_title != null) {
output += item.sport_title + ' - ';
}
output += item.title + '</a></li>';
return output;
});
});
});
writeuplist is just the ul object.
I am also worried about overriding information that is already in the list or just adding again. Don't want to keep adding the same data. What is a good way to avoid this?
I seem to be having a problem in getting the data out of the JSON file I believe it has something to do with the way am trying to access it in the .each function.
Can anyone spot where am going wrong?
