How to send html using json - php

I am creating a plugin for wordpress and I want to manage the curriculum of an Institute. I use fullcalendar in order to display the records from the database, using json. The problem is that I want to create edit and delete buttons on every event (simple links). I try to send html code with json, but I get the html tags as text in the browser page.
Is there a way to add working html to my json?
<?php
//json response view lessons
add_action('wp_ajax_utt_json_calendar','utt_json_calendar');
function utt_json_calendar(){
global $wpdb;
$viewType = $_POST['viewType'];
$viewFilter = $_POST['viewFilter'];
$lessonsTable = $wpdb->prefix."utt_lessons";
$lessons = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $lessonsTable WHERE classroomID=$viewFilter;");
$jsonResponse = array();
foreach($lessons as $lesson){
$result[title] = $lesson->lessonID."<a href='#'>asd</a>";
$result[start] = $lesson->datetime;
array_push($jsonResponse,$result);
}
echo json_encode($jsonResponse);
die();
}
?>

Fullcalendar queries that php script and expects text for event.title.
If you want to add links to your events, you need to do this in your FullCalendar options (Javascript).
The FullCalendar option you are looking for is eventRender. It should look something like:
eventRender: function(event, element) {
element.find('.fc-title').append($("<a href='#'>"+event.editlink+"</a>"));
}
It'll look like this fiddle.
And in your PHP, add the property editLink (or whatever you want to name it) to your returned JSON:
foreach($lessons as $lesson){
$result[title] = $lesson->lessonID;
$result[start] = $lesson->datetime;
$result[editLink] = "asd"; //you could use HTML here but it's better in JS
array_push($jsonResponse,$result);
}
There really isn't any way to do what you want only in PHP since you have to modify the FullCalendar options (which has to be done in JS)

How to receive a PHP Table on AJAX, and display it inside a DIV?

I'm beginning to work with AJAX, and I'm struggling with the next few things.
I'm working in Wordpress, with custom tables.
By the way, that's why the global $wpdb is there.
First, I have a Select, when you choose an option, the ID value will get stored in a variable in jQuery. This is done by the
onchange="selectRequest(this)"
global $wpdb;
$Estado = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM cor_estado;");
?>
<p>Busqueda por Estado</p>
<select class="select" id="estado" name="estado" value="" type="text" onchange="selectRequest(this);">
<option value="" disabled selected>Seleccione un estado...</option>
<?php
foreach ($Estado as $Estados ) {
echo "<option value='".$Estados->estado_id."' type='text'>".$Estados->nombre_estado."</option>";
}
?>
</select>
The Select will fill up with the id on value and the name.
This is my jQuery, but I'm having a problem here, if I leave everything on the jQuery(document).ready(){CODE HERE}, the Function selectRequest(id), won't work at all, I don't know if that has anything to do with the way that I am getting the id from the select.
Here it changed, now I am trying to receive HTML, I created the complete table on "table.php", and now I am trying to get it back
<script type="text/javascript">
function selectRequest(id){ // id of select
var selectVal = jQuery(id).val(); // currently selected
selectVal = selectVal.toString();
alert(selectVal);
jQuery.ajax({
type:"POST",
url:"<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/table.php",
dataType: "html",
data:{selectVal:selectVal},
success:function(resultHtml){
jQuery("#resultado").html(resultHtml);
},
error:function(resultHtml){
alert("What follows is blank: " + data);
}
});
}
</script>
my PHP is like this at the moment, one big change was in the WHERE, since I am using an INNER JOIN, I needed to specify on which table the "estado_id" was going to be, since Wordpress uses table prefix, it was necessary to add it in this place too.
Like I said before, I decided to build the table here, and send it to AJAX with an echo, I created $table, and each time something was created inside the table, I added it with ".=".
Testing this inside the table.php without the "If(isset($_post['selectVal']))", and having an static ID it worked on the table.php document, but if I echo $table, I get nothing on AJAX, it appears as blank.
<?php
//table.php
global $wpdb;
if(isset($_POST["selectVal"])){
$Estado_id = $_POST["selectVal"];
$Estado = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM cor_municipio INNER JOIN cor_estado ON cor_municipio.estado_id = cor_estado.estado_id WHERE cor_estado.estado_id = $Estado_id;");
$table = "<table>";
$table .="<thead>";
$table .="<tr>";
$table .="<th>Municipio</th>";
$table .="<th>Estado</th>";
$table .="</tr>";
$table .="</thead>";
$table .="<tbody>";
foreach ($Estado as $row) {
$table .="<tr>";
$table .="<td>".$row->nombre_municipio."</td>";
$table .="<td>".$row->nombre_estado."</td>";
$table .="</tr>";
}
$table .="</tbody>";
$table .="</table>";
echo $table;
}
?>
This is the HTML div where I want to display the echo $table content. At the moment if I select an option, the only thing that happens is that the P element disappears.
<div id="resultado">
<p>Estado Seleccionado</p>
</div>
The new problem is receiving this echo $table and displaying it where AJAX receives it.
instead of receiving data in JSON format, use HTML formatted data & replace your data directly in table. Using that your base issue "the amount of information in them will be different on each select option" will be resolved.
There's not a fixed rule... Sometimes is faster to create the html in the php and return it formatted so you can show it directly and sometimes is better to return raw data and handle it in javascript/jquery.
If the data you get from the ajax request is just for showing and you don't need to modify anything that depends of other elements in your current view, I will format the html response directly in the php. If you need to change something, then maybe I will go with JSON.
In your ajax request you establish JSON as the data format, so the response in your PHP has to be JSON. You almost have it. Uncomment the foreach but instead of independent variables ($info1, $info2) create an array with the fields you need for your response, and set key names. For example...
$response = array();
foreach ($Estado as $row) {
$response['municipio'] = $row->nombre_municipio;
$response['estado'] = $row->nombre_estado;
.....
}
Once you have the array created, convert it to JSON and return with...
print_r(json_encode($response));
Then, in your jquery ajax success function you can access each field with...
data.municipio or data['municipio']
data.estado or data['estado']
...
I hope it helps
So, the basic problem here was that I was following the steps to do this using the tools (JS, PHP, HTML and CSS) outside the Wordpress environment, this was the issue. I'm still solving some aspects about my AJAX request, I will try to update this answer as fast as I can.
In this Wordpress Codex entry, they explain it in detail.
Basically Wordpress has it's own way of using AJAX, so no matter if this 'looked' correct to me, the Wordpress site wasn't going to display anything from it.
Here is the solution that I used to solve my problem.
<!-- language: lang-js -->
UPDATED CODE
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#estado').change(function() {
var selectVal = jQuery('option:selected').val();
selectVal = selectVal.toString();
jQuery.ajax({
url:"/cors/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php",
type:"POST",
data:{action:'my_action', selectVal: selectVal},
success:function(data){
jQuery("#municipio_result").hide(500);
jQuery("#municipio_result").removeData();
jQuery("#municipio_result").html(data);
jQuery("#municipio_result").show(500);
},
});
});
});
STEP #1
/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php //will be the URL for all your custom AJAX requests.
This is absolutely necessary, because this document verifies the AJAX 'actions', and points them to your functions.php
STEP #2
data:{action:'your_action_name', val1: 1, val2: 2 ...}
The first variable that you have to send will always be action, the value can be the anything you want.
As I said earlier, admin-ajax.php looks for the variable action when it receives an AJAX request from any file, it will look for action, once it finds it, it will redirect it to the functions.php file located inside your_theme folder.
STEP #3
Inside you functions.php file, you will add the PHP code as a function, like this:
<!-- language: lang-sql -->
function selectEstado(){
global $wpdb;
if(isset($_POST["selectVal"])){
$Estado_id = $_POST["selectVal"];
$Estado = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM cor_municipio INNER JOIN cor_estado ON cor_municipio.estado_id = cor_estado.estado_id WHERE cor_estado.estado_id = $Estado_id;");
$table = "<table>";
$table .="<thead>";
$table .="<tr>";
$table .="<th>Municipio</th>";
$table .="<th>Estado</th>";
$table .="</tr>";
$table .="</thead>";
$table .="<tbody>";
foreach ($Estado as $row) {
$table .="<tr>";
$table .="<td>".$row->nombre_municipio."</td>";
$table .="<td>".$row->nombre_estado."</td>";
$table .="</tr>";
}
$table .="</tbody>";
$table .="</table>";
echo $table;
wp_die();
}
}
add_action('wp_ajax_my_action', 'selectEstado');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_my_action', 'selectEstado');
STEP #4
Inside your functions.php file you will create a function, can be called whatever you want, for example 'your_function_name'.
To access easily to the database, Wordpress uses the variable $wpdb, by including the line like this global $wpdb; now you can use it to access the database without any problems.
Now you have to check if the values after action got there, the if(isset($_POST)) will take care of it. To check the Database, you use the $wpdb->get_result("");
Basically what I am doing with the INNER JOIN, is checking a column name, and checking where the two tables match, and then pulling the rest of the columns that the element on the table has in "cor_municipio" and "cor_estado".
(In this code I am using JOINS, if you want to know more about them, I'll leave a link below)
Here they explain JOINS with Venn diagrams
Then I created a variable that each time a part of the table was created, it was being added to it.
You echo your data, and don't forget "wp_die();"
STEP #5
This is the last part to have your AJAX request working on Wordpress.
The next two lines are very important for it to work, this is the action that admin-ajax.php is looking for, and it's here that it references it's value, these lines look like this for every new AJAX request you need to make:
add_action('wp_ajax_', '');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_', '');
this is the "default" way the lines are written, but you will need to complete them with two things.
The action value you used in the AJAX request, in my case is 'my_action', or in this example 'your_action_name'.
The second value is the name of the function created inside your functions.php file.
It will end up looking like this for me:
add_action('wp_ajax_my_action', 'selectEstado');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_my_action', 'selectEstado');
Using the value of 'your_action_name' and 'your_function_name':
add_action('wp_ajax_your_action_name', 'your_function_name');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_your_action_name', 'your_function_name');
The first line is for logged in users, and the second one is for visitors, if you want to display something different for logged in users and another one for visitors, you will need to create a function for each of them, and just use one attribute.
add_action('wp_ajax_your_action_name', 'your_function_name1'); // for registered users
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_your_action_name', 'your_function_name2'); // for visitors
Again, this is PHP code written in admin-ajax.php, if you want to look deeper into it.
I already found out my problem, when I was sending the data on the first time I was using:
data:{action:'my_action', selectVal: 'selectVal'},
Basically what I was sending to Wordpress on selectVal, was the string
selectVal
So when my function tried to find the id based on the receiving data, it wasn't going to find anything, because it was a string with those letter.
SOLUTION
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#estado').change(function() {
var selectVal = jQuery('option:selected').val();
selectVal = selectVal.toString();
jQuery.ajax({
url:"/cors/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php",
type:"POST",
data:{action:'my_action', selectVal: selectVal}, // The right way to send it
success:function(data){
jQuery("#municipio_result").hide(500);
jQuery("#municipio_result").removeData();
jQuery("#municipio_result").html(data);
jQuery("#municipio_result").show(500);
},
});
});
});
What I am sending now is the value, and now my AJAX success:function, receives the complete table, I also changed the jQuery code, because in the first example, when adding ".hide() or .show()", it was sending multiple errors.
To add conditions by user role you can edit the admin-ajax.php to make it simpler for all the AJAX requests.
I know is way too long, but if you were having some trouble, I wanted to explain all the different elements that are used, to make it easier to understand what is happening with AJAX in Wordpress.

Server-sent data into a table

I have a simple Server-sent event setup I'm trying to make display as a table. Currently I have the SSE php page pulling the data out of the MySQL table and sending the data over as a Json array to the live page. How would I be able to take the Json array and put that into a html table with out sending the array back as a post and causing the page to "refresh"?
Here is my current code
SSE.php
//get MySQL data
$new_data = getVar();
//Create Array
$data_array = array();
//add data to array
while($row = $new_data->fetch_assoc()){
$data_array[] = $row;
$out = array_values($data_array);
$new_out = json_encode($out);
}
//echo the array to html page
echo "data: $new_out \n\n }'";
Index.html
<script type="text/javascript">
//check for browser support
if(typeof(EventSource)!=="undefined") {
//create an object, passing it the name and location of the server side script
var eSource = new EventSource("send_sse.php");
//detect message receipt
eSource.onmessage = function(event) {
//write the received data to the page
//document.getElementById("serverData").innerHTML = event.data;
};
Where serverData is the div where the array is currently being shown
I have tried to echo data: multiple times or echo the html markup back but I couldn't make it work with out a php runtime error
thanks
You may want to make an AJAX request to the PHP script. This will allow the data from the database table to populate your page without refreshing. Check out this W3Schools example.
You can simplify the user defined JavaScript by using jQuery's AJAX functions (though you would have to load jQuery onto your page as well).

How to use outputs of php that is called by ajax in our file

I have an app that sends latitude, longitude values to my postgresql database. And i want to plot the updated points accordingly on my OpenLayers map using jquery,ajax. But here is where i am stuck at: When I click the button, the php file with database connection and saving the last entry of the table in an array is happening.
But when i try using the outputs in markers, nothing is happening.
How to use the output values of the php in my function?
Here is the code that i am trying to use.
php file:
<?php
$conn = pg_connect("host=xxx port=xxx dbname=xx user=postgres password=xxx");
$result = pg_exec($conn,"Query goes here");
$numrows = pg_numrows($result);
for($ri = 0; $ri < $numrows; $ri++)
{
$row = pg_fetch_array($result, $ri);
$data = array(); // create a variable to hold the information
$lat_latest[] = $row["latitude"];
$long_latest[] = $row["longitude"]; // add the row in to the results (data) array
}
pg_close($conn);
$js_lat = json_encode($lat_latest);
echo "var javascript_lat1 = ". $js_lat . ";\n";
$js_long = json_encode($long_latest);
echo "var javascript_long1 = ". $js_long . ";\n";
?>
My page code is :
function init(){
//openlayers map code is here.
$("button").click(function(){
$.get("dataconn.php",function(data,status){
alert("Data:"+data+"Status:" +status);
var extra_point = new OpenLayers.Feature.Vector(
new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(parseFloat(javascript_long1[0]),parseFloat(javascript_lat1[0])),
{some:'data'},
{externalGraphic: 'images1/marker-gold.png', graphicHeight: 16, graphicWidth: 16});
vectorLayer1.addFeatures([extra_point]);
});
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload='init();'>
<div id="map" style = 'width: 1075px; height: 485px'>
<button> Update </button>
</div>
and the alert i am getting when clicking update button is
Data:
var javascript_lat1 = ["output of the query"];
var javascript_long1 = ["output of the query"];
Status : success
Is the way i am trying to access the values of query output correct? Please help.
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I am new to jquery.
When your php script sends a string like:
'var javascript_lat1 = ["output of the query"];'
back to your code, that does not mean that your code has a variable called javascript_lat1 in it.
Your php script is sending strings back to your javascript code from which you must extract the information that you want to use in your code. It is up to your javascript code to know what format the strings are in. But since you wrote the php script you can send the strings back in any format you want. Then your javascript code can dissect the strings with regexes, split(), etc. to extract the parts of the strings that you want to use in your code. A very simple format that your php code could use is:
"output of query 1, output of query 2"
Then you can split() on the comma to separate the two pieces of data e.g.:
var pieces = data.split(', ');
Then you can use pieces[0] and pieces[1] in your javascript code.
Another option is to send a request to your php script using the $.getJSON() function. If you do that, your php script should send back a json formatted string, e.g.:
"{lat1: 'blah blah blah', long1: 'foo bar foo bar'}"
Then the $.getJSON() function will automatically convert the string into a javascript object and pass the js object to your callback function. Inside the callback function you can access the data using:
some_func(data.lat1, data.long1);

MySQL Query not returning newest results on setInterval

I am having a problem with setInterval in the $(document).ready(function(){}
What I am doing is setting the interval to do is call a PHP script that runs some MySQL queries to check the condition of 4 switches and then updating the screen with the values are in the database like so:
$(document).ready(function(){
setInterval(function(){
<?php require('fetchSwitchStatuses.php'); ?>
$("#switch1").css('background', 'rgb(<?php echo $switchColor1 ?>)');
$("#switch1").html('<?php echo $switchState1 ?>');
$("#switch2").css('background', 'rgb(<?php echo $switchColor2 ?>)');
$("#switch2").html('<?php echo $switchState2 ?>');
$("#switch3").css('background', 'rgb(<?php echo $switchColor3 ?>)');
$("#switch3").html('<?php echo $switchState3 ?>');
$("#switch4").css('background', 'rgb(<?php echo $switchColor4 ?>)');
$("#switch4").html('<?php echo $switchState4 ?>');
},1000);
});
Here is the code for fetchSwitchStatuses.php:
$connect = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
mysqli_select_db($connect, "db_name");
$fetch1 = mysqli_query($connect,
"SELECT SwitchStatus FROM Switches WHERE PinNumber = '3'"
);
$fetch2 = mysqli_query($connect,
"SELECT SwitchStatus FROM Switches WHERE PinNumber = '5'"
);
$fetch3 = mysqli_query($connect,
"SELECT SwitchStatus FROM Switches WHERE PinNumber = '6'"
);
$fetch4 = mysqli_query($connect,
"SELECT SwitchStatus FROM Switches WHERE PinNumber = '9'"
);
$i = 1;
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array(${'fetch'.$i}))
{
if($row['SwitchStatus'] == 0)
{
${'switchColor'.$i} = "255, 0, 0";
${'switchState'.$i} = "OFF";
}
else if ($row['SwitchStatus'] == 1){
${'switchColor'.$i} = "0, 255, 0";
${'switchState'.$i} = "ON";
}
else {
${'switchColor'.$i} = "100, 100, 100";
${'switchState'.$i} = "ERROR";
}
$i++;
}
mysqli_close($connect);
When the page is loaded the information is correct, whatever is in the database is what is reflected by the colors on the screen.
When I click on the object to change the value, all of the necessary changes are made and the database is updated. However, the problem arises when the Interval is repeated. The values are switched back to whatever the original values were when the page was loaded. So, although the information is correctly changed in the database, for some reason the colors of the buttons is always reset to the first value read by the queries.
How can I fix this so that the information that is reflected on the screen is accurate?
With AJAX technology you can:
Send a request and get results from server by requesting a page (a .txt .js .html or even php).
So with AJAX you can get result of a page save something to database, get something from data base, you can work with sessions and anything you can do with a php file.
When you send an AJAX request to a see a page(i.e /userData.php?userId=5) the page /userData.php?userId=5 will be executed and its output will be returned.(HTML or just a word ‘yes’ or ‘no’ or ‘you can’t access to this user’s information’).
You can send data to file with POST or GET. But the question is how you can get data from page. Because the result AJAX will give you is what the requested page echoed to page like this
<html>
….
</html>
Or
‘Yes’
Or
<?php echo ‘something’; ?>
So what about getting a row of Date or lots of data? Because the only thing you are getting is a text or maybe a long text.
For that you can use JSON which Is something like nested arrays.
[
{
"term": "BACCHUS",
"part": "n.",
"definition": "A convenient deity invented by the...",
"quote": [
"Is public worship, then, a sin,",
"That for devotions paid to Bacchus",
"The lictors dare to run us in,",
"And resolutely thump and whack us?"
],
"author": "Jorace"
},
…
And this is a string too. But you can get Data in it with $.getJSON in jQuery and you can generate JSON data in server side like this.
<?php
$arr=array(
‘data’=>’ffff’,
‘anotherData’=>array(‘rrrrr’,’sssss’);
);
Echo json_encode($arr);
?>
Json_encode() in PHP gets an array and returns json string of it. And we echo it.
Now we can use jQuery to get Data which will be retrieved from server.

Better Interaction Design and Web Development with Simple JavaScript Techniques

Global jQuery functions
To this point, all jQuery methods that we've used have been attached to a jQuery object that we've built with the $() factory function. The selectors have allowed us to specify a set of DOM nodes to work with, and the methods have operated on them in some way. This $.getJSON() function, however, is different. There is no logical DOM element to which it could apply; the resulting object has to be provided to the script, not injected into the page. For this reason, getJSON() is defined as a method of the global jQuery object (a single object called jQuery or $ defined once by the jQuery library), rather than of an individual jQuery object instance (the objects we create with the $() function).
If JavaScript had classes like other object-oriented languages, we'd call $.getJSON() a class method. For our purposes, we'll refer to this type of method as a global function; in effect, they are functions that use the jQuery namespace so as not to conflict with other function names.
To use this function, we pass it the file name as before:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#letter-b a').click(function() {
$.getJSON('b.json');
return false;
});
});
This code has no apparent effect when we click the link. The function call loads the file, but we have not told JavaScript what to do with the resulting data. For this, we need to use a callback function.
The $.getJSON() function takes a second argument, which is a function to be called when the load is complete. As mentioned before, AJAX calls are asynchronous, and the callback provides a way to wait for the data to be transmitted rather than executing code right away. The callback function also takes an argument, which is filled with the resulting data. So, we can write:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#letter-b a').click(function() {
$.getJSON('b.json', function(data) {
});
return false;
});
});
Here we are using an anonymous function as our callback, as has been common in our jQuery code for brevity. A named function could equally be provided as the callback.
Inside this function, we can use the data variable to traverse the data structure as necessary. We'll need to iterate over the top-level array, building the HTML for each item. We could do this with a standard for loop, but instead we'll introduce another of jQuery's useful global functions, $.each(). We saw its counterpart, the .each() method, in Chapter 5. Instead of operating on a jQuery object, this function takes an array or map as its first parameter and a callback function as its second. Each time through the loop, the current iteration index and the current item in the array or map are passed as two parameters to the callback function.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#letter-b a').click(function() {
$.getJSON('b.json', function(data) {
$('#dictionary').empty();
$.each(data, function(entryIndex, entry) {
var html = '<div class="entry">';
html += '<h3 class="term">' + entry['term'] + '</h3>';
html += '<div class="part">' + entry['part'] + '</div>';
html += '<div class="definition">';
html += entry['definition'];
html += '</div>';
html += '</div>';
$('#dictionary').append(html);
});
});
return false;
});
});
Before the loop, we empty out so that we can fill it with our newly-constructed HTML. Then we use $.each() to examine each item in turn, building an HTML structure using the contents of the entry map. Finally, we turn this HTML into a DOM tree by appending it to the .
This approach presumes that the data is safe for HTML consumption; it should not contain any stray < characters, for example.

how to store php object to access its data on click with javascript

I'm trying to figure out the least obtrusive and least computationally expensive way to store PHP objects coming from my MySQL database such that their data can be rendered by JavaScript on click by a user.
Currently, I'm storing the data as custom attributes on a button. But this generates a lot of code and I've heard is "slow". I'm wondering if I should JSON encode my PHP object, $items (see below), and how that JavaScript would then look. Note I'm using Codeigniter for the PHP so that's what up with the alternate foreach loop syntax.
Here's where I'm at so far with the HTML/PHP:
<img id="img"></img><a id="url"></a> <!--elements where data is rendered on click-->
<? foreach($items as $item):?>
<button data-id="<?=$item->id?>" data-url="<?=$item->url?>" data-img="<?=$item->img?>">click<?=$item->id?></button>
<?endforeach;?>
And here's my JS:
$(document.body).on('click', 'button', function(){
var $this=$(this), id=$this.data('id'), url=$this.data('url'), img=$this.data('img');
$('#img').attr('src', img);
$('#url').attr('href', url).html(url);
});
Most of my site's data is coming from PHP via MySQL and I've long been confused by the issue of when should I convert that data to a JavaScript array/JSON or not.
If you json_encode your $items array (assuming it only consists of data you will want in JS), you can assign this to a JS variable:
<script>var items = <?php echo json_encode($items); ?></script>
You can then remove the data-url and data-img attributes. Then, within your JS code:
var $this = $(this), id = $this.data('id'), url = items[id].url, img = items[id].img;
// the rest of your code
Edit: when you move the click handler in a separate file, you would get something like this:
function setup_click(items) {
var $img = $('#img'), $url = $('#url');
$('button').click(function(evt) {
var id = $(this).data('id'),
url = String(items[id].url),
img=String(items[id].img);
$url.attr('href', url).html(url);
$img.attr('src', img);
});
}
here's a JSfiddle showing off the javascript/JSON part: http://jsfiddle.net/fz5ZT/55/
To call this in one shot from your template:
<script src="[your ext script file path].js"></script>
<script>setup_click(<?php echo json_encode($items); ?>);</script>
Hope that helps :)
