Passing loop data as variable from JavaScript to AJAX via Bootstrap modal

My code below was used to retrieve records from a loop using JavaScript. Everything works fine. Each of the records button has a unique id that when click
should alert users_id in a Bootstrap Modal popup.
The problem is that the looped button that contains users_id is not alerting anything when each button is clicked.
Below is the code for retrieving records in JavaScript along with Bootstrap modal button:
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$.post('users.php', function(response){
$.each(JSON.parse(response).items, function(i,v) {
$('.userslist').append('<span>'+v.id+'</span> Profile');
});
});
});
</script>
Below is the code for posting the users_id and then alert it:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".modalLink").click(function() {
var id = $(this).attr("id");
alert(id);
var dataString = 'id='+ id;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "ajax_modal.php",
data: dataString,
cache: false,
success: function(data) {
$("#rmm").html(data);
}
});
});
});
</script>
but if I take the Modal button outside the retrieve records in a javascript loop
it will alert users_id and everything will work fine as in code below
Profile
Can someone help me make each of the JavaScript looped button to post its own unique users_id and then alert it in a Bootstrap modal popup. I have attached a screen shot of the result obtained from the JavaScript loop.
Thanks

If I understand your question properly;
Try changing
$(".modalLink").click(function() {
to
$(document).on('click', '.modalLink', function() {
Without seeing the rest of your code or a working fiddle, I suspect your content is dynamic and JQ cannot bind the click handler, simply because there is no content to bind to. this answer does a good job of explaining the difference between .on and .click.
If you get the expected result, I would drop the document selector and use the closest parent static element.

Jquery to fix scroll down to bottom - Not working

I am using a setInterval() to load one part of the page for every 1 second. Everything is working fine but, I am displaying all the messages using a table. I want scroll bar always to the bottom.we have to scroll down to view new messages. So, I want my scroll bar fix to the bottom by default.
Jquery code which is loading the messages table
setInterval(function(){
if(user.trim()!=""){
$.ajax({
type : "GET",
url : "getuserconversation",
data: {username: user},
datatype: "json",
success: function(data){
if(data.success){
$(".messages").load("conversation_of_users.jsp");
var $mydiv = $("#msgs");
$mydiv.scrollTop($mydiv.height());
}
},
error: function() {
console.log("error");
}
});
}
}, 5000);
It was working but, there is a problem. It goes to bottom of the table and within 1 second it is returning to top again. I saw this while debugging. In real time we cant even see that. I dont know why it is going to top again.

I don't know why is returning to top but you can solve your problem using return false; at end of the callback.
or you can use e.preventDefault();

A javascript/jquery function to delete itself after execution

I am sending an ajax request to one of my controller to update the user interaction (which page he visits/likes) for an very insight analytics. I am storing these information in my mongo db.
All I want is, on success of this request, delete this script. But all the alert works, but the script never deletes. The following is my code
<div id="delete_this">
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$.ajax({
url: weblink+'user-interactions',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'html',
data: {
//some post data
},
})
.done(function(html) {
alert("works");
var status = "executed";
alert("works here");
$("#delete_this").remove();
})
.fail(function(html) {
console.log("error");
});
});
</script>
</div>
WHAT I HAVE DONE TILL NOW:
1) tried with adding a div as the parent and pointing to delete that div as shown in script.
2) separated out the .remove() from the script into a new script tag and used something like this.
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#delete_this").remove();
});
</script>
tried to specify the parentnode and delete the child.
I failed in all three attempts. I am really stuck out here.
Any reasons why it is not working?
I also have another question relating to this.
This link says that the javascript stays in the session till the page is refreshed. So why are'nt we following a standard where we can execute the scripts and delete them
By doing so, we will be able to achieve building a bit more secured webpages. Is'nt it?

You could use plain Javascript to do this (not tested this)
var domNode = document.getElementById('delete_this');
var nodeParent = domNode.parentNode;
nodeParent.removeChild(domNode);
Not sure this is ideal but it should remove it completely from the DOM.

This works :
<button>remove</button>
<script id="test">
$( "button" ).click(function() {
$( "#test" ).remove();
alert("removed " + ($( "#test" ).length == 0));
});
</script>
try it here: http://jsfiddle.net/4ungb/
So either you have a) other errors that prevent that script to complete or b)
your criteria for testing deletion is not correct.

jQuery click event interrupts setInterval

I'm creating script where I use AJAX from jQuery. I've got a problem, as on my website I've got hidden object. Moreover I use setInterval to frequently refresh a piece of my script. Everything works well, but until I click on link to set this hidden object to be visible. When I click on link and make object visible, setInterval stops refreshing page. This is my code to AJAX:
$(document).ready(setInterval(function() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "score.php",
success: function(html){
$("#loadplace").hide().show().html(html);
}
});
return false;}, 60000));
and this is code for link:
$('div#bar a#squad1').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('div#s1 table.events1').hide();
$('div#s1 table.index_players1').fadeIn();
});
$('div#bar a#events1').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('div#s1 table.index_players1').hide();
$('div#s1 table.events1').fadeIn();
});
is there any solution in jQuery for my problem ?
P.S. I hope you understand what I wrote, I know that my English is not so good as I wish it to be.

How to open an html page in and html div?

The question might be a little misleading as I don't want to know how to open a html document in a div ,but I asked the question as I am currently facing a problem where I can't replace the html file which I have already placed in a div
I have already placed a html file in a div using ajax like this:
$.ajax({
url: 'calender.aspx',//this is html.aspx file
cache: false,
dataType: "html",
success: function (data) {
$(".mainBar").html(data);//mainBar is the div
}
});
this file gets placed on page load i.e document.ready function ,till here everything is fine.....my trouble starts when I want to replace the file,what I do is call a javascript function say replaceFile() on button click and write the same code to replace the file (changing the url of course)
like this
function replaceFile()
{
$.ajax({
url: 'Another.aspx',
cache: false,
dataType: "html",
success: function (data) {
$(".mainBar").html(data);
}
});
}
but this doesn't work,please help me out!

I guess your binding is not working when you try to click on the content you loaded via ajax . So you might want to change the binding of onclick from
$("#someButtonId").click(function(){
replaceFile();
});
to
$(document).on("click","#someButtonId",function(){
replaceFile();
});
jQuery on works with current and future elements.

with this function you will load the page into the element named result
.load( url , data, complete(responseText, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest)] )
function replaceFile(url)
{
$('#result').load(url, function() {
alert('Load was performed.');
});
}
replaceFile('htmlfile.html');

You can load this in Firebug and set a break point at $(".mainBar").html(data); to make sure it's being called. You don't have a failure handler, so it's possible that it's actually receiving an HTTP failure code, not a success code.
I'd also look at the network traffic under the Net tab to see what the request/response looks like. That's an easy way to find out what is really going on with most AJAX calls. IE9 has similar developer tools if you want to use it and not Firefox or Chrome.
