Well...I don't see anything in your code that would filter the JSON once it comes back from the server.
You are just dumping the response into the select menu. Once the params are sent to the server, and the JSON is generated there, there is nothing else that would happen to create further filtering. The params in the getJSON function do not provide filtering for the returned JSON, only keys/values to be passed to the server. It seems like you might be better served doing the filtering on the server, that way you do not have to pass back the entire list of funds, only the ones in the category you send to the server. -- Josh -----Original Message----- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of bradrice Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2009 10:45 AM To: jQuery (English) Subject: [jQuery] Re: jquery.getJSON params not filtering I have this in there: $.ajaxSetup({"error":function(XMLHttpRequest,textStatus, errorThrown) { alert(textStatus); alert(errorThrown); alert(XMLHttpRequest.responseText); }}); I've got it coming back right. I can see the json on the server and it is serving correctly. Like I said I am getting a proper response back and it is populating the menu, just not filtering on the params I am telling it to filter on.
