I'm using Freebase Search Suggest to bind a certain keyword to a getJson request. The problem is that I bind getJson functions and the corresponding .append/.prepend functions to to the input field that has the search suggest. Now if want to clear(.empty) my div that contains the result from the getJson functions i end up not being able to appennd anything.
So every time I do a search the result div stays empty. If I not try to run the empty function and do a second search, the new information gets appended on top of the previous information.
My site www.karsten-tietje.dk/sw
$('#myinput').suggest({key: <mykey>,filter: (all type:/music/musical_group )
})
.bind(fb-select, function(e, data) {
$.getJSON(http://ws.spotify.com/search/1/track.json?q=+search_val, function(data) {
items = [];
$.each(data[tracks], function(key, val) {
items.push('<li class=spot><span typeof=MusicRecording property=track><p>Name: <strong><span property=name>' + val[name] + '</span></span></strong></p> <p>Album <strong>' + val.album[name] + '</strong></p><p> Released: <strong>' + val.album[released] +'</strong></p><p><strong><a href=' + val[href] +'><i class=icon-play-sign></i> Start Spotify</a></strong></p>');
if ( key === 7 )
{
return false;
}
});
$('#spotify-div').prepend('<h3 style=border-bottom:1px solid white;>Spotify tracks</h3>');
$('#spotify').html(items.join('</li>'));
});
});
This is just a snippet of my some of my code. I run multiple getJson functions.
How can I clear/empty my result div before running the other functions?
