My current database setup involves a MySQL DB with approximately 100 rows. Within each row, there is a list of items stored in a column within the table. The challenge I am facing is extracting the first item from this list in each row. For example, if the column in the first row contains:
honda convertible four-wheel drive
I need to extract only "Honda." Similarly, if the next row and same column contains:
mazda hardtop two-wheel drive
I would only require "Mazda."
Initially, I attempted to accomplish this task during an ajax call but encountered difficulties as MySQL does not support commands like SELECT FIRST or SELECT TOP 1. Therefore, I believe a more effective solution would be to perform this extraction within the function that retrieves the data after it has been returned. One of the items being returned includes all the data in the specific column, selector_buttongroup_classes. Below is my function:
displayCars();
function displayCars () {
$.ajax({
type : 'GET',
url : '/modules/crm/selector-ajax.php',
data : {'action' : 'get-images'},
dataType: 'json',
success : function(data) {
var resultArray = data.isotopecubes;
var resultArray2 = data.isotopecubes2;
var selectorDiv = $('#boat_isotope_gallery');
var divHtml = '';
var i = 0;
for (i = 0; i < resultArray.length; i++) {
divHtml += "<div class='element-item " + resultArray[i].selector_buttongroup_classes + "' data-range-test='100-400' " + resultArray[i].selector_sliderdata_attributes + " ><h3 class='name'>" + resultArray[i].product_name + "</h3><p class='weight'><img src='" + resultArray[i].photo + "' width='80' border='0' alt=''></p></div>";
}
selectorDiv.html(divHtml);
},
error : function(err) {
console.log('ajax failure');
}
});
} }); // end of document ready
I am seeking assistance on how to achieve something similar to:
$manufacturer[i]=resultArray[i].selector_buttongroup_classes.first_item
This would enable me to utilize the extracted manufacturer within the For statement effectively.
