I want to run a for loop that will produce a new div (with class 'container') containing a single link. E.g. the first div will show 'link6.php', the second div will show 'link5.php' etc. However, currently it seems that the loop is running out the full loop in each div (I have attached a picture showing this).
for (var i = 6; i > 0; i--) {
$('#everything').append('<div class="container"></div>');
var link = "link" + i + ".php" + "<br />";
$('.container').append(link);
}
Thank you very much in advance. I am new at this and your help is much appreciated ;)
The problem is that after you append the div, you select all .container elements and append the text to each. There seems to be no reason why you couldn't do the following.
for (var i = 6; i > 0; i--) {
$('#everything').append('<div class="container">link'+i+'.php<br /></div>');
}
This is my recommendation for your code. I recommend you to cache things first, and understand how jQuery's DOM selection works.
var everythingCached = $('#everything');
var container = $('<div class="container"></div>');
for (var i = 6; i >0; i--) {
var cached = everythingCached.append(container);
var link = "link" + i + ".php" + "<br />";
cached.append(link);
}
https://jsfiddle.net/47g4f14p/
When you do $(".container").append(), it appends to every DIV with class="container", not only the one you just appended in this loop.\
The simple way to fix this is to include link in what you append to #everything.
for (var i = 6; i > 0; i--) {
var link = "link" + i + ".php" + "<br />";
$('#everything').append('<div class="container">' + link + '</div>');
}
Or you could create the container as an object:
$('#everything').append($('<div>', {
"class": "container",
html: "link" + i + ".php<br/>"
});
or you could assign the container to a variable and append to it:
var container = $('<div class="container">').appendTo("#everything");
var link = "link" + i + ".php" + "<br />";
container.append(link);
The problem is because everytime you do $('.container').append(link);, the $('.container') gathers all existing divs including the ones added in the previous iterations and appends your link to each.
Instead of re-gathering them, reuse the existing reference to the container. You can chain append and appendTo.
for (var i = 6; i > 0; i--) {
$('<div class="container"/>') // create container
.append("link" + i + ".php") // append container with link
.appendTo('#everything'); // append container to everything
}
#everything {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid blue;
}
.container {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="everything"></div>
You're giving each div the class of 'container' and then running the append() on all .containers.
You need to give the divs a unique ID, or refer to it directly by the object.
As an example:
for (var i = 6; i > 0; i--) {
$('#everything').append('<div class="container'+i+'"></div>');
var link = "link" + i + ".php" + "<br />";
$('.container'+i).append(link);
}
Can you please tell me how to make list in jQuery mobile? I am trying to make this type list as given in fiddle on pop up screen dynamically .
Here is the fiddle
In this fiddle I make two rows.In first row there is only p tag. But in second row there is nested collapsible rows. I need to make same thing in pop up screen. I am able to make first row. But In my second row contend is null why? Can you suggest where I am wrong?
fiddle
$(function () {
$('#test').click(function(){
alert('d');
createCommandPopUpTabs();
$("#tabbedPopup").popup("open");
});
});
var tabsHeader = [ "InputParameter", "basic"];
var tabsHeader_basic = [ "XYZ", "Third Level",
];
function createCommandPopUpTabs(){
var header = "<h3 >dd</h3>";
var commmand = 'dd';
var button = '<button onclick="return submitCommand("'+
'")" style="" class="donebtn common-button1">Save</button>';
$("#commandInfo").append(button);
$("#commandInfoheader").html(header);
for ( var i = 0; i < tabsHeader.length; i++) {
var headerId = tabsHeader[i] + "_tab" + commmand;
var header = "<div data-role='collapsible' data-collapsed='false' id='"
+ headerId + "'><h3>InputParameter</h3></div>";
var content ;
if(tabsHeader[i]=="InputParameter"){
content = "<p>yes</p>";
}else if(tabsHeader[i]=="basic"){
for ( var i = 0; i < tabsHeader_basic.length; i++) {
headerId = tabsHeader_basic[i] + "_tab" + commmand;
header = "<div data-role='collapsible' data-collapsed='false' id='"
+ headerId + "'><h3>basic</h3></div>";
content += getcontend(tabsHeader_basic[i]);
}
}
$("#tabbedSet").append(header);
$("#tabbedSet").find("#" + headerId).append(content);
$("#tabbedSet").collapsibleset("refresh");
}
}
function getcontend(name){
if(name=="Third Level"){
return"<p>Third Level></p>";
} if(name=="XYZ"){
return"<p> second Level></p>";
}
}
There are errors in your code and logic. I will only go over a couple of them to hopefully get you on the right path:
In tabsHeader_basic array the Third Level has a space in it which you later use as an ID which makes it an invalid ID because you cannot have spaces in an ID.
From the HTML 5 Draft:
The value must not contain any space characters.
Also, the "basic" collapsible div needs to exist before you start adding the nested collapsible div.
So this line needs to come out of the for loop
header = "<div data-role='collapsible' data-collapsed='false' id='"+ headerId + "'><h3>basic</h3></div>";
Go through the JSFiddle and compare your code agaisnt my changes.
Hopefully that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
I have updated createCommandPopUpTabs() function.
Also removed space in Third Level on var tabsHeader_basic = ["XYZ", "ThirdLevel"];
Check the Updated Fiddle
function createCommandPopUpTabs() {
var header = "<h3 >dd</h3>";
var commmand = 'dd';
var button = '<button onclick="return submitCommand("' +
'")" style="" class="donebtn common-button1">Save</button>';
$("#commandInfo").html(button);
$("#commandInfoheader").html(header);
$("#tabbedSet").html('');
for (var i = 0; i < tabsHeader.length; i++) {
var headerId = tabsHeader[i] + "_tab" + commmand;
var header = "<div data-role='collapsible' data-collapsed='true' id='" + headerId + "'><h3>" + tabsHeader[i] + "</h3></div>";
$("#tabbedSet").append(header);
var content;
if (tabsHeader[i] == "InputParameter") {
content = "<p>yes</p>";
$("#tabbedSet").find("#" + headerId).append(content);
} else if (tabsHeader[i] == "basic") {
for (var j = 0; j < tabsHeader_basic.length; j++) {
var headerId1 = tabsHeader_basic[j] + "_tab" + commmand;
var header1 = "<div data-role='collapsible' data-collapsed='true' id='" + headerId1 + "'><h3>" + tabsHeader_basic[j] + "</h3></div>";
var content1 = getcontend(tabsHeader_basic[j]);
$("#tabbedSet").find("#" + headerId).append(header1);
$("#tabbedSet").find("#" + headerId1).append(content1);
}
}
$("#tabbedSet").collapsibleset("refresh");

I wanted to print this array: photolist into my DIV called: fotolist, but don’t know how to. I want to print the array after it loops through both completely. How do I do this?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="jquery-min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
API_KEY = 'YOURAPIKEY'; //INSERT API KEY
USER_ID = '22694125#N02'; //ENTER USER ID
var photolist = [];
$.getJSON('https://www.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getPhotos&api_key=' + API_KEY + '&user_id=' + USER_ID + '&format=json&jsoncallback=?', function(rest) {
var numPhotos = rest.photos.pages;
for (var u =0; u < numPhotos; u++) {
$.getJSON('https://www.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getPhotos&api_key=' + API_KEY + '&user_id=' + USER_ID + '&format=json&jsoncallback=?&pages=' + u, function(results) {
for (var m =0; m < results.photos.total; m++) {
photolist.push("https://www.flickr.com/" + results.photos.photo[m].owner + "/" + results.photos.photo[m].id);
}
});
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="fotolist">
</div>
</body>
</html>
Use .append if you want to push content into an already existing div. Make sure targetDiv is declared outside the $.getJSON call.
var targetDiv = $('#printDiv');
for (var m =0; m < results.photos.total; m++)
{
targetDiv.append("https://www.flickr.com/" +
results.photos.photo[m].owner + "/" + results.photos.photo[m].id);
}
Push items to an array
Join the items in the array
.append() the items to your target
DEMO
jQuery:
var myList = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
myList.push('<li>');
myList.push('My name is Agent 00' + i);
myList.push('</li>');
}
$("#target").append(myList.join(''));
HTML:
<ul id="target"></ul>
This will do the trick.
a. Here is a one liner assuming array contains only links:
$("#fotolist").append(photolist.join(" </br> "));
</br> is present to break the lines, if you don't want to break line, just remove that part
b. Paste the code after the for loop.
$.each(photolist, function(){
$("#fotolist").append(this);
});
c. Though the above method will work, we are refreshing the DOM often.
So you need to create a DOM fragment and add all text/html to it and then append it to DOM for performance reasons.
var html = "";
$.each(photolist, function(){
html +=this;
});
$("#fotolist").append(html);
EXAMPLE
I have on page div:
<div id="here_table"></div>
and in jquery:
for(i=0;i<3;i++){
$('#here_table').append( 'result' + i );
}
this generating for me:
<div id="here_table">
result1 result2 result3 etc
</div>
I would like receive this in table:
<div id="here_table">
<table>
<tr><td>result1</td></tr>
<tr><td>result2</td></tr>
<tr><td>result3</td></tr>
</table>
</div>
I doing:
$('#here_table').append( '<table>' );
for(i=0;i<3;i++){
$('#here_table').append( '<tr><td>' + 'result' + i + '</td></tr>' );
}
$('#here_table').append( '</table>' );
but this generate for me:
<div id="here_table">
<table> </table> !!!!!!!!!!
<tr><td>result1</td></tr>
<tr><td>result2</td></tr>
<tr><td>result3</td></tr>
</div>
Why? how can i make this correctly?
LIVE: http://jsfiddle.net/n7cyE/
This line:
$('#here_table').append( '<tr><td>' + 'result' + i + '</td></tr>' );
Appends to the div#here_table not the new table.
There are several approaches:
/* Note that the whole content variable is just a string */
var content = "<table>"
for(i=0; i<3; i++){
content += '<tr><td>' + 'result ' + i + '</td></tr>';
}
content += "</table>"
$('#here_table').append(content);
But, with the above approach it is less manageable to add styles and do stuff dynamically with <table>.
But how about this one, it does what you expect nearly great:
var table = $('<table>').addClass('foo');
for(i=0; i<3; i++){
var row = $('<tr>').addClass('bar').text('result ' + i);
table.append(row);
}
$('#here_table').append(table);
Hope this would help.
You need to append the tr inside the table so I updated your selector inside your loop and removed the closing table because it is not necessary.
$('#here_table').append( '<table />' );
for(i=0;i<3;i++){
$('#here_table table').append( '<tr><td>' + 'result' + i + '</td></tr>' );
}
The main problem was that you were appending the tr to the div here_table.
Edit: Here is a JavaScript version if performance is a concern. Using document fragment will not cause a reflow for every iteration of the loop
var doc = document;
var fragment = doc.createDocumentFragment();
for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
var tr = doc.createElement("tr");
var td = doc.createElement("td");
td.innerHTML = "content";
tr.appendChild(td);
//does not trigger reflow
fragment.appendChild(tr);
}
var table = doc.createElement("table");
table.appendChild(fragment);
doc.getElementById("here_table").appendChild(table);
When you use append, jQuery expects it to be well-formed HTML (plain text counts). append is not like doing +=.
You need to make the table first, then append it.
var $table = $('<table/>');
for(var i=0; i<3; i++){
$table.append( '<tr><td>' + 'result' + i + '</td></tr>' );
}
$('#here_table').append($table);
Or do it this way to use ALL jQuery. The each can loop through any data be it DOM elements or an array/object.
var data = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight'];
var numCols = 1;
$.each(data, function(i) {
if(!(i%numCols)) tRow = $('<tr>');
tCell = $('<td>').html(data[i]);
$('table').append(tRow.append(tCell));
});
http://jsfiddle.net/n7cyE/93/
To add multiple columns and rows, we can also do a string concatenation. Not the best way, but it sure works.
var resultstring='<table>';
for(var j=0;j<arr.length;j++){
//array arr contains the field names in this case
resultstring+= '<th>'+ arr[j] + '</th>';
}
$(resultset).each(function(i, result) {
// resultset is in json format
resultstring+='<tr>';
for(var j=0;j<arr.length;j++){
resultstring+='<td>'+ result[arr[j]]+ '</td>';
}
resultstring+='</tr>';
});
resultstring+='</table>';
$('#resultdisplay').html(resultstring);
This also allows you to add rows and columns to the table dynamically, without hardcoding the fieldnames.
Here is what you can do: http://jsfiddle.net/n7cyE/4/
$('#here_table').append('<table></table>');
var table = $('#here_table').children();
for(i=0;i<3;i++){
table.append( '<tr><td>' + 'result' + i + '</td></tr>' );
}
Best regards!
Following is done for multiple file uploads using jquery:
File input button:
<div>
<input type="file" name="uploadFiles" id="uploadFiles" multiple="multiple" class="input-xlarge" onchange="getFileSizeandName(this);"/>
</div>
Displaying File name and File size in a table:
<div id="uploadMultipleFilediv">
<table id="uploadTable" class="table table-striped table-bordered table-condensed"></table></div>
Javascript for getting the file name and file size:
function getFileSizeandName(input)
{
var select = $('#uploadTable');
//select.empty();
var totalsizeOfUploadFiles = "";
for(var i =0; i<input.files.length; i++)
{
var filesizeInBytes = input.files[i].size; // file size in bytes
var filesizeInMB = (filesizeInBytes / (1024*1024)).toFixed(2); // convert the file size from bytes to mb
var filename = input.files[i].name;
select.append($('<tr><td>'+filename+'</td><td>'+filesizeInMB+'</td></tr>'));
totalsizeOfUploadFiles = totalsizeOfUploadFiles+filesizeInMB;
//alert("File name is : "+filename+" || size : "+filesizeInMB+" MB || size : "+filesizeInBytes+" Bytes");
}
}
Or static HTML without the loop for creating some links (or whatever). Place the <div id="menu"> on any page to reproduce the HTML.

I wrote rather good function that can generate vertical and horizontal tables:
function generateTable(rowsData, titles, type, _class) {
var $table = $("<table>").addClass(_class);
var $tbody = $("<tbody>").appendTo($table);
if (type == 2) {//vertical table
if (rowsData.length !== titles.length) {
console.error('rows and data rows count doesent match');
return false;
}
titles.forEach(function (title, index) {
var $tr = $("<tr>");
$("<th>").html(title).appendTo($tr);
var rows = rowsData[index];
rows.forEach(function (html) {
$("<td>").html(html).appendTo($tr);
});
$tr.appendTo($tbody);
});
} else if (type == 1) {//horsantal table
var valid = true;
rowsData.forEach(function (row) {
if (!row) {
valid = false;
return;
}
if (row.length !== titles.length) {
valid = false;
return;
}
});
if (!valid) {
console.error('rows and data rows count doesent match');
return false;
}
var $tr = $("<tr>");
titles.forEach(function (title, index) {
$("<th>").html(title).appendTo($tr);
});
$tr.appendTo($tbody);
rowsData.forEach(function (row, index) {
var $tr = $("<tr>");
row.forEach(function (html) {
$("<td>").html(html).appendTo($tr);
});
$tr.appendTo($tbody);
});
}
return $table;
}
usage example:
var title = [
'مساحت موجود',
'مساحت باقیمانده',
'مساحت در طرح'
];
var rows = [
[number_format(data.source.area,2)],
[number_format(data.intersection.area,2)],
[number_format(data.deference.area,2)]
];
var $ft = generateTable(rows, title, 2,"table table-striped table-hover table-bordered");
$ft.appendTo( GroupAnalyse.$results );
var title = [
'جهت',
'اندازه قبلی',
'اندازه فعلی',
'وضعیت',
'میزان عقب نشینی',
];
var rows = data.edgesData.map(function (r) {
return [
r.directionText,
r.lineLength,
r.newLineLength,
r.stateText,
r.lineLengthDifference
];
});
var $et = generateTable(rows, title, 1,"table table-striped table-hover table-bordered");
$et.appendTo( GroupAnalyse.$results );
$('<hr/>').appendTo( GroupAnalyse.$results );

A working example using the method mentioned above and using JSON to represent the data. This is used in my project of dealing with ajax calls fetching data from server.
http://jsfiddle.net/vinocui/22mX6/1/
In your html:
< table id='here_table' >< /table >
JS code:
function feed_table(tableobj){
// data is a JSON object with
//{'id': 'table id',
// 'header':[{'a': 'Asset Tpe', 'b' : 'Description', 'c' : 'Assets Value', 'd':'Action'}],
// 'data': [{'a': 'Non Real Estate', 'b' :'Credit card', 'c' :'$5000' , 'd': 'Edit/Delete' },... ]}
$('#' + tableobj.id).html( '' );
$.each([tableobj.header, tableobj.data], function(_index, _obj){
$.each(_obj, function(index, row){
var line = "";
$.each(row, function(key, value){
if(0 === _index){
line += '<th>' + value + '</th>';
}else{
line += '<td>' + value + '</td>';
}
});
line = '<tr>' + line + '</tr>';
$('#' + tableobj.id).append(line);
});
});
}
// testing
$(function(){
var t = {
'id': 'here_table',
'header':[{'a': 'Asset Tpe', 'b' : 'Description', 'c' : 'Assets Value', 'd':'Action'}],
'data': [{'a': 'Non Real Estate', 'b' :'Credit card', 'c' :'$5000' , 'd': 'Edit/Delete' },
{'a': 'Real Estate', 'b' :'Property', 'c' :'$500000' , 'd': 'Edit/Delete' }
]};
feed_table(t);
});
As for me, this approach is prettier:
String.prototype.embraceWith = function(tag) {
return "<" + tag + ">" + this + "</" + tag + ">";
};
var results = [
{type:"Fiat", model:500, color:"white"},
{type:"Mercedes", model: "Benz", color:"black"},
{type:"BMV", model: "X6", color:"black"}
];
var tableHeader = ("Type".embraceWith("th") + "Model".embraceWith("th") + "Color".embraceWith("th")).embraceWith("tr");
var tableBody = results.map(function(item) {
return (item.type.embraceWith("td") + item.model.toString().embraceWith("td") + item.color.embraceWith("td")).embraceWith("tr")
}).join("");
var table = (tableHeader + tableBody).embraceWith("table");
$("#result-holder").append(table);
i prefer the most readable and extensible way using jquery.
Also, you can build fully dynamic content on the fly.
Since jquery version 1.4 you can pass attributes to elements which is, imho, a killer feature.
Also the code can be kept cleaner.
$(function(){
var tablerows = new Array();
$.each(['result1', 'result2', 'result3'], function( index, value ) {
tablerows.push('<tr><td>' + value + '</td></tr>');
});
var table = $('<table/>', {
html: tablerows
});
var div = $('<div/>', {
id: 'here_table',
html: table
});
$('body').append(div);
});
Addon: passing more than one "html" tag you've to use array notation like:
e.g.
var div = $('<div/>', {
id: 'here_table',
html: [ div1, div2, table ]
});

It is important to note that you could use Emmet to achieve the same result. First, check what Emmet can do for you at https://emmet.io/
In a nutshell, with Emmet, you can expand a string into a complexe HTML markup as shown in the examples below:
Example #1
ul>li*5
... will produce
<ul>
<li></li>
<li></li>
<li></li>
<li></li>
<li></li>
</ul>
Example #2
div#header+div.page+div#footer.class1.class2.class3
... will produce
<div id="header"></div>
<div class="page"></div>
<div id="footer" class="class1 class2 class3"></div>
And list goes on. There are more examples at https://docs.emmet.io/abbreviations/syntax/
And there is a library for doing that using jQuery. It's called Emmet.js and available at https://github.com/christiansandor/Emmet.js
Here the below code helps to generate responsive html table

"head 2": "row2 col 2",
"head 3": "row2 col 3"
}, {
"head 1": "row3 col 1",
"head 2": "row3 col 2",
"head 3": "row3 col 3"
}];
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
var accordianhtml = "<button class='accordion'>" + data[i][small_screen_heading] + "<span class='arrow rarrow'>→</span><span class='arrow darrow'>↓</span></button><div class='panel'><p><table class='accordian_table'>";
var table_row = null;
var table_header = null;

if (i === 0 && true) {
table_header = table_header + "<th>" + key + "</th>";
}
table_row = table_row + "<td>" + data[i][key] + "</td>"
}
if (i === 0 && true) {
table_header = "<tr>" + table_header + "</tr>";
$(".mv_table #simple_table").append(table_header);
}
table_row = "<tr>" + table_row + "</tr>";
$(".mv_table #simple_table").append(table_row);
accordianhtml = accordianhtml + "</table></p></div>";
$(".mv_table .accordian_content").append(accordianhtml);
