I have a variable number of URL's that I want to make $.ajax(urlx) to and I don't see any examples of how to pass that to $.when. It does not look like .when takes an array, just a list of parameters.
How can I make this work?
var picturesArray = [];
var urlCount = 2;
$.when(
$.ajax(urls[0]),
$.ajax(urls[1])
).done(function() {
var cntx;
for (cntx = 0; cntx < urlCount; cntx++) {
picturesArray.push(arguments[cntx][0]);
}
});
I did finally get it working. The answer is this, though with a few more details.
var requests = [];
for (i = 0; i < urls.length; i++) {
requests.push(
$.ajax({
urlIndex: i,
url: urls[i],
success: function(data, textStatus) {
jsonResult[this.urlIndex] = {
data: data,
status: textStatus,
error: "",
viewed: false
};
console.log("success:" + new Date().getMilliseconds());
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
jsonResult[this.urlIndex] = {
data: {},
status: textStatus,
error: errorThrown,
viewed: false
};
console.log("error:" + new Date().getMilliseconds());
}
})
);
}
$.when.apply(undefined, requests).then(
function() {
callback();
},
function() {
callback();
}
);
