I need to read two JSON URLs with jQuery, mangle them together and then proceed updating my UI from the JSON data.
With the two URLs in URLA
and URLB
and a global variable globalDataA
I tried:
function useBothData(dataB) {
// use dataB and globalDataA
};
function useDataA (data) {
globalDataA = data
$.getJSON (URLB, useBothData);
};
$.getJSON (URLA, useDataA);
The idea is that after loading the 1st URL I load the 2nd and then work with them. However this does never seem to return. (I get the Brwoser warning "Script takes too long".)
How can I arrange jQuery's getJSON
calls for the two URLs (and their success functions), so that I can then use their data in finally one function?
CodePudding user response:
You can use the callback function of getJSON
$.getJSON(URLA, useDataA, function(dataB) {
//useBothData = globalDataA dataB
$.getJSON(URLB, useBothData, function(result) {
//do more stuff
})
});
