  Replacing the value on complete

  Apr 05, 2012 07:03 PM|LINK

  I am currently using .length to grab the number of css tweets and it gives me 20.  Then i put the code at the oncomplete it says 2040

  I need to remove the first 20 and keep the 40 so the account shows the accurate count of the page here is my code.

  I was using append thats why it wasnt replacing. I cant seem to find the function i need

  TThe counter 1 and counter 2  are the elements in the beginning and end of this code block.

  should i remove the class onbegin and readd it oncomplete? whats the best practice? 

           $(document).ready(function () {
                var count = $('.TwitterMessageBox').length;
               $('#counter').append('The Count is ' + count);  
    
              $('#loader').hide(); 
              $("#StartLabel").click(function (e) {
                                        })
                      $.ajax({
              headers: { 'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest' },
              //      beforeSend: function () { $("#loaders").show(); },
              // beforeSend:function () {  $("#loaders").html("<img src="../../Content/ajax-loader.gif" alt="" /> Sending...").show();},
              type: "Get",
              url: '/Home/Index',
              data: { 'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest' },
              //  contentType: "application/text; charset=utf-8",
              dataType: "text",
              async: true,
              cache: false,
              success: function (data) {
              $('#TweetBox').prepend(data);
              $('#response').append('Load was performed.');
              },
              error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
              alert(textStatus);
              },
              beforeSend: function(){
                $('#loader').show();
              }, 
               
   
             complete: function (resp){
              alert(resp.getAllResponseHeaders());
                $('#loader').hide();
                //var counter = 2;
                var counter2 = $('.TwitterMessageBox').length;            
                      $('#counter').append(counter2); 
                   //  $('#counter').find('#counter').text(counter2);
   
             } ,
              
                                  
                                
              
                       });
              });
              });

  If counter element is a form element (input), you can use .val( value )

  else you can use .html( htmlString )

  You can try this:

  $("#counter").text($(".TwitterMessageBox").length);
  
  $("#counter").html($(".TwitterMessageBox").length);
