I am completely new to javascript and web development.
I'm having a problem with the for loop; what happens to me is that the ids come back to me all together and not individually in order to retrieve the relative image and title through the id, so I can't recover images and title from the json array.
Specifically I get the error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'immagine') at XMLHttpRequest.xmlhttp.onreadystatechange
Warning: I have no problems in how to retrieve items in a json array because I know how to do it very well
This is my code:
//here I get all the articles, so my json array
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "https://wjko5u1234.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/articles";
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
var allart = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
var container=document.getElementById("slideshow")
for(var i = 0; i < allart.Items.length; i++)
{
container.innerHTML += '<div class="slideshow-container"></div>';
document.getElementById("id").innerHTML += "<br/>" + allart.Items[i].id;
myFunction1(allart.Items[i].id);
}
}
};
xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
xmlhttp.send();
//here I pass the id via function call, and for each id I want to retrieve image and title which has that specific id only i get the set of ids without having one at a time to retrieve what i need
function myFunction1(id) {
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "https://wjko5u1234.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/articles/"+id;
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
var myArr = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
console.log(myArr);
document.getElementById("img1").src="articoli_img/"+myArr.Item.immagine;
document.getElementById("title1").innerHTML = myArr.Item.titolo;
}
};
xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
I would be very thankful for any help.
It seems that "Item" prop doesn't exist in returned object (located in myFunction1()) (did you mean to write myArr.immagine?)
Since you are new: I recommend to use for-each loops in collections, by using:
for(let item of allart.Items) {
.....
}
