show output of file on client side using jquery + javascript .
- by tazimk
Hi,
Written some code in my view function :
This code reads a file from server . stores it in a list .passes to client
def showfiledata(request):
f = open("/home/tazim/webexample/test.txt")
list = f.readlines()
return_dict = {'list':list}
json = simplejson.dumps(list)
return HttpResponse(json,mimetype="application/json")
On, client side the $.ajax callback function receives this list of lines.
Now, My Question is . I have to display these lines in a textarea. But these lines should not be displayed at once . Each line should be appended in textarea with some delay. (Use of setInterval is required as per my knowledge) . Also I am using jquery in my templates.
The server used is Django .
Please provide some solution as in some sample code will be quite helpful .
