jsrender does not show data in select - options
yedduprasasd opened this issue · comments
Boris, First off let me thank you for the awesome features you have made available via jsRender. For a novice like me in Web Development, it is a great and simple method to build apps.
I have a very simple need to display list of Company IDs for the user to select from. The list is a "select" and I have been able to successfully populate the template and can see the data in the consol.log. However when I render the template at the place holder, the list does not show any options.
There is a class called "chosen-select" on the select tag that is part of the html template I bought and this gives me the right look and feel. If I remove this class, the list is populated, but I am missing out the functionality and look and feel I wish to keep.
How can I continue to use the class and still be able to use jsrender to populate the list.
Below is the code...
---- Placeholder ----
<div class="col-sm-4">
<select id="companylistplaceholder" class="form-control m-b chosen-select" name="account">
</select>
</div>
---- Template ----
<script id="companylisttemplate" type="text/x-jsrender">
<option>[%>id%]</option>
</script>
---- Icon when clicked calls the AJAX function that intern calls a postgreSQL function via django to get the list of company IDs ----
<div class="ibox-tools">
{% for imodulesaccess in lmodulesaccess %}
{% if imodulesaccess.createallowed == 'Y' %}
<a class="plus-link"><i id="i_adduser"class="fa fa-plus text-navy" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#adduser"></i></a>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</div>
---- call to the ajax function ---
$("#i_adduser").click(function(ev){
getcompanylist();
})
---- AJAX function that calls the Db and get the data ----
function getcompanylist(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/elahadmin/getcompanylist",
data: {},
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function(lcomanylist){
console.log(lcomanylist);
var template = $.templates("#companylisttemplate");
var companylistdata = template.render(lcomanylist);
$("#companylistplaceholder").html(companylistdata);
console.log(companylistdata);
}
})
}
It seems like JsRender is functioning correctly, and your issue is not coming from JsRender at all.
It looks like you are using other technologies for generating content - some kind of server rendering with templates? I don't know what the {% %} and [% %] markup relates to.
If changing a class makes the options show up, then your issue involves CSS styles - presumably a CSS stylesheet containing "chosen-select" - and associated with the "HTML template you bought". Again, the issue would be with this rather than with JsRender.
I'll close this as not being a JsRender issue or bug. Please add comments if you have further questions that do concern JsRender usage directly... Thanks...
