I have a form that submits data into a function called ng-submit="newBirthday() this pushes data - $scope.bdayname, $scope.bdaydate; into an array called bdaes
My issue is that with all of the tutorials I have seen the array has predefined data is there a way that it can be an empty array that gets filled with data when it is submitted?
app.js:
var app = angular.module('birthdayToDo', []);
app.controller('main', function($scope){
// Start as not visible but when button is tapped it will show as true
$scope.visible = false;
// Create the array to hold the list of Birthdays
$scope.bdays = [{}];
// Create the function to push the data into the "bdays" array
$scope.newBirthday = function(){
$scope.bdays.push({name:$scope.bdayname, date:$scope.bdaydate});
$scope.bdayname = '';
$scope.bdaydate = '';
}
});
HTML:
<body ng-app="birthdayToDo" ng-controller="main">
<div id="wrap">
<!-- Begin page content -->
<div class="container">
<div class="page-header">
<h1>Birthday Reminders</h1>
</div>
<ul ng-repeat="bdays in bdays">
<li>{{bdae.name}} | {{bdae.date}}</li>
</ul>
<form ng-show="visible" ng-submit="newBirthday()">
<label>Name:</label>
<input type="text" ng-model="bdayname" placeholder="Name"/>
<label>Date:</label>
<input type="date" ng-model="bdaydate" placeholder="Date"/>
<button class="btn" type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
</div>
<div id="push"></div>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<div class="container">
<a class="btn" ng-click="visible = true"><i class="icon-plus"></i>Add</a>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/cordova-2.5.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
app.initialize();
</script>
</body>
bdaevsbdayis a little confusing. Also, your array isn't empty - it has one empty object in it. An empty array is simple$scope.bdays = [];. If you post a Plunker, I'll be able to sort it out. – Josh David Miller Mar 16 '13 at 17:48
