Hi sanjay, Thanks for your reply,here is how I did it this way
$(function(){ // event object var vent=_.extend({},Backbone.Events) // the model var myModel=Backbone.Model.extend(); // the model collection var myModelCollection=Backbone.Collection.extend({ model:myModel, urlRoot: 'resp', initialize:function(){ this.fetch({ success:function(){ vent.trigger('fetched') } }) }, }); // one model view var myModelView=Backbone.View.extend({ tagName:'p', template:_.template($('#demotpl').html()), initialize:function(){ //this.render() }, render:function(){ this.$el.html(this.template(this.model.toJSON())); return this; }, }); // model collection view var myModelCollectionView=Backbone.View.extend({ el:'.demo', initialize:function(){ vent.on('fetched',this.render,this) //this.render() }, render:function(){ this.collection.each(this.one,this) }, one:function(onemod){ var onemodView=new myModelView({model:onemod}) console.log(onemod) this.$el.append(onemodView.render().el) } }); // initialize the collection var newCollection=new myModelCollection() // initaliaze collection view var newCollectionView=new myModelCollectionView({collection:newCollection}) }); is there another way i could have done it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
