I have a WebMethod being called from ajax, trying to iterate through the returned data. The data being returned is "{ BusinessTypeID = 2 }". I'm trying to figure out how to just get the value 2?
//Function called from ajax
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string[] GetTerminalBusinessTypes(string terminalID)
{
DataClassesDataContext db = new DataClassesDataContext();
List<string> results = new List<string>();
try
{
var terminalBusinessTypes = (from bt in db.BusinessTypes
join obt in db.OxygenateBlenderBusinessTypes on bt.BusinessTypeID equals obt.BusinessTypeID
where obt.OxygenateBlenderID == Convert.ToInt32(terminalID)
select new
{
bt.BusinessTypeID
}).ToList();
for (int i = 0; i < terminalBusinessTypes.Count(); i++)
{
results.Add(terminalBusinessTypes[i].ToString());
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
return results.ToArray();
}
The ajax function:
function PopulateTerminalBusinessTypes(terminalID) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "OxygenateBlenderCertificationApplication.aspx/GetTerminalBusinessTypes",
data: "{'terminalID':" + terminalID + "}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
var targetValue = data.d;
var items = $('#cblTerminalBusinessType input:checkbox');
$.each(targetValue, function (key, targetValue) {
alert(data[index].BusinessTypeID);
});
}
})//end ajax
}
To be honest I cannot see where your "index" is defined.
Shouldn't the alert line read
$each(targetVale, function(key, item) {
// on second look, this wont work as you are converting toString()
alert(targetValue[key].BusinessTypeId)
// this should
alert(item)
});
You could also throw a debugger; line above the alert and see the values being traversed.
When your web service returns the json value, asp.net wraps in an object, with the key being d
and the value being your json string. Review this link for more info.
You have to parse the value string into a json object. Using jQuery (v1.4.1 or higher):
jQuery.parseJSON(targetValue);
You may want to try returning a JSON string from C#:
public static **string** GetTerminalBusinessTypes(string terminalID)
...
var oSerializer = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
string sJSON = oSerializer.Serialize(results);
return sJSON;
