Iterating through/Parsing JSON Object via JavaScript
The JSON you have currently will not work because the second "student" effectively replaces the first, since these are just properties in an object.
If you can control the JSON output, change it to:
{
"student":[{
"id": 456,
"full_name": "GOOBER, ANGELA",
"user_id": "2733245678",
"stin": "2733212346"
},{
"id": 123,
"full_name": "BOB, STEVE",
"user_id": "abc213",
"stin": "9040923411"
}]
}
Then you have an an array which you can loop over:
for(var i=0; i<objJSON.student.length; i++) {
...objJSON.student[i]...
}
Your JSON object is incorrect because it has multiple properties with the same name. You should be returning an array of "student" objects.
[
{
"id": 456,
"full_name": "GOOBER ANGELA",
"user_id": "2733245678",
"stin": "2733212346"
},
{
"id": 123,
"full_name": "BOB, STEVE",
"user_id": "abc213",
"stin": "9040923411"
}
]
Then you can iterate over it as so:
for (var i = 0, len = objJSON.length; i < len; ++i) {
var student = objJSON[i];
$("<div id=\"" + student.id + "\">" + student.full_name + " (" + student.user_id + " - " + student.stin + ")</div>")...
}
