Displaying json data in HTML

[xkevin]

I am using PHP server to respond with my app in every request. This is the sample json data:

[{
"id":"11",
"user_id":"8000",
"product":"Shoes A",
"quantity":"1",
"date_open":"2015-01-04",
"paid":"1",
"harvested":"",
"reinvest":null,
"profit":null,
"investment":"3000"
},

{
"id":"12",
"user_id":"8000",
"product":"Shoes B",
"quantity":"1",
"date_open":"2015-03-01",
"paid":"1",
"harvested":"",
"reinvest":null,
"profit":null,
"investment":"1500"
}]

The number of product per user here is different, some have no product, some have 1, 2...10 etc. products. So depending on how many the product of a user, what is the best way displaying them in a table. So that the data/items are all organize and well displayed with image upon clicking the button.

As of now this is my ajax request code.

$("button").click(function(){
        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "http://www.sample.com/app/user-data.php", 
            crossDomain: true,
            dataType: 'json',
            data: { user_token: user_token },
            success: function(data, status, jqXHR) {
                //console.log(data); //this is displaying as object why?
                //console.log(status);
                console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); //to string

            },
            error: function(xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
                alert(ajaxOptions + " " + thrownError);
            }

        });
    });

Hi,

What I usually did to show records like this is use listitems. They are well displayed on screen and you could show additional info where you click on one of it.

Here is the code of one of my apps (a mix from yours and mine) and a sample screenshot. I'm using Bootstrap.

$("button").click(function(){
        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "http://www.sample.com/app/user-data.php", 
            crossDomain: true,
            dataType: 'json',
            data: { user_token: user_token },
            success: function(data, status, jqXHR) {
       			
				//This is the listitems container, clear it before show result
				$("#lv_precios").empty();
				
				
				//Take this as pseudo code, I don't know if your returned JSON will work exactly as this
				//result is like your data JSON object
				
				//data records iteration
				for(var i = 0; i < result.rows.length; i++){
					//fill listitem structure with relevant data fields
					$("#lv_precios").append('<a class="list-group-item allow-badge widget uib_w_31" data-uib="twitter%20bootstrap/list_item" data-ver="1" href="javascript:editaPrecio(\''+result.rows.id+'\');">'
											+'<span class="badge glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span><h4 class="list-group-item-heading">'+result.rows.value.fecha.substr(8,2)+'/'+result.rows.value.fecha.substr(5,2)+'/'+result.rows.value.fecha.substr(0,4)+': '+result.rows.value.precio.toFixed(2)+' $/litro'
											+'</h4><p class="list-group-item-text">'+result.rows.value.litros+' litros - Pago: '+result.rows.value.plazo+'</p></a>');
				}
				///////////////
				
            },
            error: function(xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
                alert(ajaxOptions + " " + thrownError);
            }

        });
    });
