I have been working with nested arrays and appending them to a div. When the button with id "name" is clicked, a movie title is stored in an array $titelBetyg, which is then added to another array called $films. Whenever a new $titelBetyg is created, I want to first remove the previous $films from my div before replacing it with the new one. How can I achieve this?
Javascript
$(document).ready(function(){
var $films = [];
$('#name').keyup(function(){
$('#name').css('background-color', 'white');
});
$('#options').change(function(){
$('#options').css('background-color', 'white');
});
$("#button").click(function(){
var $titelBetyg = [];
var $titel = $('#name').val();
var $betyg = $('#options').val();
if($titel == ""){
$('#name').css('background-color', 'red');
alert("Fail");
}
else if($betyg == "0"){
$('#options').css('background-color', 'red');
alert("Fail");
}
else{
$titelBetyg.push($titel);
$titelBetyg.push($betyg);
$films.push($titelBetyg);
// This is where I need help removing the old content before adding the new one
$('#rightbar').append("<ul>");
for(i=0; i<$films.length; i++){
$('#rightbar').append("<li>" + $films[i][0] + " " + $films[i][1] + "</li>" + "<br>");
}
$('#rightbar').append("</ul>");
}
});
$('#stigande').click(function(a,b){
});
$('#fallande').click(function(){
});
});
