how to get different values from an array?

Question

I am sending some encoded data into an array and trying to retrieve them. i am using following code for that

var holiday_list =<?php echo json_encode($calendar_results); ?>;

        var events = []; //The events array

        $.each(holiday_list, function(key, value) {
            events.push({
                title: value.type, //get the type(am or pm)
                start: value.date_cal, //date of the calendar
                // className: "fc-event-skin22"

            });

There are two types. am and pm. i want to get all am results into one variable and all pm results into one variable. If anyone knows how to do that give me an idea. I am using php codeigniter framework. Thanks in advance.

You will need to show what values value.type contains, is it literally 'am' and 'pm'? — RobG

You could use a simple if condition to check wether value.type is am or pm and push that into a seperate array — Harigovind R

You just need a "if-else". Hope it will work.

        var amEvents = []; //The events array
        var  pmEvents = [];
        $.each(holiday_list, function(key, value) {
           if( value.type == 'am'){
               amEvents.push({
                title: value.type, //get the type(am or pm)
                start: value.date_cal, //date of the calendar
                // className: "fc-event-skin22"

               });

            }
            else{
                pmEvents.push({
                title: value.type, //get the type(am or pm)
                start: value.date_cal, //date of the calendar
                // className: "fc-event-skin22"

               });

             }
});

Hope this will help you

var result;
for( var i = 0, len = holiday_list.length; i < len; i++ ) {
    if( holiday_list[i][title] == 'am' ) {
        result_am[] = holiday_list[i]['start']; 
    }
    else {
        result_pm[] = holiday_list[i]['start']; 
    }        
 }

You can setup the arrays as properties of an object, then assign them based on the type:

var amTypes = [];
var pmTypes = [];
var types = {am:amTypes, pm:pmTypes};

$.each(holiday_list, function(key, value) {
  types[value.type].push({
    title: value.type,
    start: value.date_cal
  });
});

amTypes and types.am reference the same array, as for pmTypes and types.pm.

Untested since you haven't provided an sample data.
