add items to list

[Mark Dahmke]

Hi - I've been testing Tiggzi but need a bit of help with a list. I need to be able to dynamically populate and refresh a list. What I'm doing now:

Code: Select all

 var len = results.rows.length; 

$('[name=employeeList]').html('');
for (var i=0; im just not finding it in your examples.

Thanks

Are you trying to generate a list or just add another item to the list? What kind of list are you using?

Thanks - I need to be able to append items to the list and/or clear it and repopulate the list. I'm using the one that shows up on the palette as "list" with three items labeled 1, 2, 3.

Here is how to add a new item:

code
Tiggr('list')&#46;append('<li>New item<&#47;li>');
Tiggr('list')&#46;listview('refresh');
/code

where 'list' - is the name of the list.

Thanks - that's what I was trying to find. One feature that would be helpful would be a "view source" capability to be able to browse the generated code within a screen (trying to find it through the Chrome developer tool is time-consuming).

The first line should be this, to make it a link:
code
Tiggr('list')&#46;append('<li><a>New item<&#47;a><&#47;li>');
/code

Using Chrome developer tool (or Firebug) is actually the best way to do it, we use it all the time. I'm sure you know this, but you can right-click any element on the page, and view it in Chrome developer tools (Inspect Element).

Got it figured out... thanks.

I've been using Chrome developer tools but hadn't gotten into the habit of using 'inspect element'... not sure why I didn't think of that earlier

Sorry to keep asking basic questions but I haven't done much javascript lately and am still getting up to speed with PhoneGap - I usually build native droid apps.
