I'm Trying To Build Up Options From An Array Data Value Using Jsview

if you have an array of items, without properties, how do you access the value inside a for loop? I currently get the right number of options, but I haven't found the correct synta

Solution 1:

If options is an array of strings, you need:

<selectdata-link="dec">
    {^{for options}}
        <optionvalue="{{:#data}}">{{:#data}}</option>
    {{/for}}
</select>

Note also the data-link expression on the select element.

In general, in your jsfiddle, you can use data-linking much more. For example:

<div>{^{>dec}}</div>

(Note the ^)

And to do data-linking you need

$template.link("#container", data);

rather than just calling render...

There are more changes needed, but here is an update of your jsfiddle which does select binding: http://jsfiddle.net/BorisMoore/Y44Gm/5/
