button click using JSON

marchello · 11-13-2012, 05:58 PM

Hi all,

I'm new to JSON, trying to generate list of buttons.

My need is to generate buttons using JSON array. It works fine for buttons text, but not for opening url. Could you please help me?

Here is my JSON code:

Code:

{
	"Caption": "Module caption",
	"Buttons":
	[
		{"Text":"google", "Url": "window.open('http://www.google.com/')"},
		{"Text":"yahoo", "Url": "window.open('http://www.yahoo.com/')"},
		{"Text":"microsoft", "Url": "window.open('http://www.microsoft.com/')"},
		{"Text":"facebook", "Url": "window.open('http://www.facebook.com/')"}
	]
}

My html code:

Code:

<html>
	<head>
		<title>SMButtons</title>
		<script src="JQuery/jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript">	        
			//When document loaded.
			$(document).ready(function(){   
				// Get data from file as JSON
	             $.getJSON('Module.json', function(data) {
	             	// Set json data from file to variable 'persons'
			     	var buttons = data.Buttons;
			     	// For each item of variable person append to ul list
		            $.each(buttons, function(key, val)
		            {	
                    $("<li><input type='button' onClick='"+ val.Url +"' value='"+ val.Text +"'/></li>").appendTo('#aaa');
					});

			    });			    			   
 			});
	    </script>
	</head>
	<body>
		<ul id='ulObj'></ul>

		<ul id='aaa'>
			<li>1</li>
			<li>2</li>
		</ul>

	</body>
</html>
