I am populating a select menu with getJSON. I am wondering if there's a way that I can use jQuery's .each function to bring in these values?
Surely there must be an easier way to accomplish this...maybe?
PHP file:
<?php
$queryMonth = SELECT monthID, month FROM months;
$result = $db->query($queryMonth);
while($rowMonth = $db->fetch_assoc($result)) :
$data[] = $rowMonth;
endwhile;
echo json_encode($data);
?>
The jQuery:
$.getJSON('selectMenus.php', function(data) {
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[0].monthID + > + data[0].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[1].monthID + > + data[1].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[2].monthID + > + data[2].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[3].monthID + > + data[3].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[4].monthID + > + data[4].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[5].monthID + > + data[5].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[6].monthID + > + data[6].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[7].monthID + > + data[7].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[8].monthID + > + data[8].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[9].monthID + > + data[9].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[10].monthID + > + data[10].month + </option>);
$(select.month).append(<option value= + data[11].monthID + > + data[11].month + </option>);
});
My json output looks like this:
[{
monthID: 1,
month: January
}, {
monthID: 2,
month: February
}, {
monthID: 3,
month: March
}, {
monthID: 4,
month: April
}, {
monthID: 5,
month: May
}, {
monthID: 6,
month: June
}, {
monthID: 7,
month: July
}, {
monthID: 8,
month: August
}, {
monthID: 9,
month: Septemeber
}, {
monthID: 10,
month: October
}, {
monthID: 11,
month: November
}, {
monthID: 12,
month: December
}]
