I've a bootstrap modal which contains a table of users. I can select a user from the table and on clicking 'save', the details of seleced user is displayed. I'm displaying 10 users per page in the table of the modal. However, if I select any user from page 1 and then click next to select some users from page 2 and click on 'save', my selection from page 1 is not retained.
I mean the checkbox is cleared on page 1, whenever I click on next or previous. How do I retain this selection on my checkbox, even if I click on next or previous at any page?
Here's the snippet:
var currentPageNo = 0; // Keep track of currently displayed page
// Select button that is descendant of userList
$('#userList .prev-btn').click(function(){
userList(currentPageNo-10);
});
$('#userList .next-btn').click(function(){
userList(currentPageNo+10);
});
$('#adminList .prev-btn').click(function(){
adminList(currentPageNo-10);
});
$('#adminList .next-btn').click(function(){
adminList(currentPageNo+10);
});
function userList(pageNo) {
var resType="userList";
createTable(resType,pageNo);
}
function adminList(pageNo) {
var resType="adminList";
createTable(resType,pageNo);
}
function createTable(resType, pageNo) {
// Update global variable
currentPageNo = pageNo;
// Set visibility of the correct "prev" button:
$('#' + resType + ' .prev-btn').toggle(pageNo > 0);
// Ask one record more than needed, to determine if there are more records after this page:
$.getJSON("https://api.randomuser.me/?results=11&resType="+resType + "&pageIndex=" + pageNo, function(data) {
var $table = $('#' + resType + ' table');
$('tr:has(td)', $table).empty();
// Check if there's an extra record which we do not display,
// but determines that there is a next page
$('#' + resType + ' .next-btn').toggle(data.results.length > 10);
// Slice results, so 11th record is not included:
data.results.slice(0, 10).forEach(function (record, i) { // add second argument for numbering records
var json = JSON.stringify(record);
$table.append(
$('<tr>').append(
$('<td>').append(
$('<input>').attr('type', 'checkbox')
.addClass('selectRow')
.val(json),
(i+1+pageNo) // display row number
),
$('<td>').append(
$('<a>').attr('href', record.picture.thumbnail)
.addClass('imgurl')
.attr('target', '_blank')
.text(record.name.first)
),
$('<td>').append(record.dob)
)
);
});
// Show the prev and/or buttons
}).fail(function(error) {
console.log("**********AJAX ERROR: " + error);
});
}
var savedData = []; // The objects as array, so to have an order.
function saveData(){
var errors = [];
// Add selected to map
$('input.selectRow:checked').each(function(count) {
// Get the JSON that is stored as value for the checkbox
var obj = JSON.parse($(this).val());
// See if this URL was already collected (that's easy with Set)
if (savedData.find(record => record.picture.thumbnail === obj.picture.thumbnail)) {
errors.push(obj.name.first);
} else {
// Append it
savedData.push(obj);
}
});
refreshDisplay();
if (errors.length) {
alert('The following were already selected:\n' + errors.join('\n'));
}
}
function refreshDisplay() {
$('.container').html('');
savedData.forEach(function (obj) {
// Reset container, and append collected data (use jQuery for appending)
$('.container').append(
$('<div>').addClass('parent').append(
$('<label>').addClass('dataLabel').text('Name: '),
obj.name.first + ' ' + obj.name.last,
$('<br>'), // line-break between name & pic
$('<img>').addClass('myLink').attr('src', obj.picture.thumbnail), $('<br>'),
$('<label>').addClass('dataLabel').text('Date of birth: '),
obj.dob, $('<br>'),
$('<label>').addClass('dataLabel').text('Address: '), $('<br>'),
obj.location.street, $('<br>'),
obj.location.city + ' ' + obj.location.postcode, $('<br>'),

$('<button>').addClass('removeMe').text('Delete'),
$('<button>').addClass('top-btn').text('Swap with top'),
$('<button>').addClass('down-btn').text('Swap with down')
)
);
})
// Clear checkboxes:
$('.selectRow').prop('checked', false);
handleEvents();
}
function logSavedData(){
// Convert to JSON and log to console. You would instead post it
// to some URL, or save it to localStorage.
console.log(JSON.stringify(savedData, null, 2));
}
function getIndex(elem) {
return $(elem).parent('.parent').index();
}
$(document).on('click', '.removeMe', function() {
// Delete this from the saved Data
