Select shows numbers digit by digit

in Using jQuery • 11 years ago

Dear experts, I have the following code,

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="author" content="Naveed" />

<title>Untitled 2</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function(){
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#D1").load('result.php',function (str){
var options = $("#D1");
options.append($("<option />").val("").html("Roll No"));
$.each(str, function(str,text) {
options.append($("<option />").val(text).html(text));
});

});
});
</script>
</head>

<body>

<select size="1" id="D1">
</select>

</body>

</html>

result.php

<?php

$a[0] ='89';
$a[1] ='53';
$a[2] = '67';
for ($x=0;$x<count($a);$x++)

echo $a[$x];
}
?>

Because you are looping through each item in the return (str) you're getting individual values. Change your PHP to this -

$a[0] ='89';
$a[1] ='53';
$a[2] = '67';
for ($x=0;$x<count($a);$x++){
echo '<option value="'.$a[$x].'">'.$a[$x].'</option>';
}

Change your jQuery (I used comments to illustrate) to this -

$("#D1").load('testing.php',function (str){
      /* var options = $("#D1"); */
      options.append($("<option />").val("").html("Roll No"));
      /*$.each(str, function(str,text) {
          options.append($("<option />").val(text).html(text));
      });*/
});
