Loading JSON array from API into another array in Javascript using a loop

I'm pretty new to programming in general but have the problem that my array keeps being overwritten in my for loop so when I print in to the console only the last set of data is showing. i.e the data in the array is overwritten each time.
I want to store all the details in an array so I can work with the data. I have tried to put an array into an array but keep getting errors.
for (var i = 0; i < collection.length; i++){
var dailyfxTech = [];
dailyfxTech.push((collection[i].ccyPair), (collection[i].resistance), (collection[i].support), (collection[i].trend.src));
}
console.log(dailyfxTech)
How can I append the data to the dailyfxTech array each time it loops so that it looks like ;
dailyFxTech {[ccypair], [resistance], [support], [trend.src]},
{[ccypair], [resistance], [support], [trend.src]},
{[ccypair], [resistance], [support], [trend.src]},
{[ccypair], [resistance], ...etc},
I later want to be able to reference the array to place the data in other parts of my site eg:
dailyFxTech[2,3] = the support of third ccy pair.
Thank you for your help.

Your issue is that each time the loop is running you are declariing a new array. Super simple fix. Just need to put the var dailyfxTech outside of your loop.
var dailyfxTech = [];
for (var i = 0; i < collection.length; i++){
dailyfxTech.push((collection[i].ccyPair), (collection[i].resistance), (collection[i].support), (collection[i].trend.src));
}
console.log(dailyfxTech)

Declare var dailyFxTech outside of the for loop.
var dailyfxTech = [];
for (var i = 0; i < collection.length; i++){
dailyfxTech.push((collection[i].ccyPair), (collection[i].resistance), (collection[i].support), (collection[i].trend.src));
}
When you have the var declaration in the body of the for loop, the variable is re-allocated and the old value is trashed.

Declare and fill in the an array with the for loop

I want to create an array using a for loop in JavaScript. I want my array to be consisted of 10 variables or more (var kaunt1, var kaunt2, etc...) which will be actually numbers from div tags.
I tried this code below, but it isn't working??? Am I missing something?
var arr = [];
for(var i=1; i<=10; i++) {
var kaunt[i] = parseInt(document.getElementById("A"+i).innerHTML, 10);
}

var kaunt[i] = ... isn't how you add an index to an array, that's a syntax error.
Just use kaunt[i] = ....

You're declaring arr, but using kaunt? Not sure what that's about, but you should normalize that if they're meant to be the same thing.
Anyway, use kaunt.push(parseInt(document.getElementById("A"+i).innerHTML, 10)); (no var) inside your for.

Other's beat me I think, but this should do it...
var kaunt = new Array();
for(var i=1; i<=2; i++) {
kaunt[i] = parseInt(document.getElementById("A"+i).innerHTML, 10);
}

Get rid of the var in front of kaunt[i].
kaunt[i] = ....

Make use of a global array

I want to use the values that I get from a request, but the response object is a local variable (an array). Therefore I create this global array:
<script type="text/javascript">
var response = [];
as you see, right under the script opening tag, so it is global. Then in the function where I have the response I added this:
jsonResponse.forEach(function(element){
response[element.size] = element.id;
});
And then added this, with the purpose to make use of the values that I've got in my global var from the response object:
getIdOfProductBySize: function() {
var selectedIndex = document.getElementById('dropdown_options').value;
for (var key in response) {
if (key != selectedIndex) {
continue;
} else {
return response[key];
}
}
}
Doesn't work, so I started going step by step (of the order I add the new things) and I noticed that the script breaks after the 2nd thing that I add (where the forEach is).
Maybe I am not declaring the global variable correctly, or maybe I cannot access it this way, or maybe I don't assign the values to it in the correct way, I don't know, so I am asking if someone can give me a hint how to make use of all this working together?

Try this:
var response = {key1: value1};
var i = 2;
jsonResponse.forEach(function(entry) {
console.log(entry);
response["key"+i] = entry.id;
i++;
});
var index;
for (index = 0; index < response.length; ++index)
{
console.log(response[index]);
if(response["key"+index] !== selectedIndex)
continue;
else
return response["key"+index];
}

Looks like you're going to need a two dimensional array.
Looks to me like your "key" value is undefined.
before:
for (var key in response) {
try:
var k=response.whatever;
If that makes sense?

response[element.id] = element.size;
Try this one, i believe element.size returns the actual size of an element and is not what you want to use as index in an array.

How to get the next element of an array with Jquery onclick

Hi all i am trying to change the html of an object from an array of htmls. But i am having problem iterating properly. I managed to make it work once
EDIT
After a few complains about the clarity of my question I will rephrase it. I have a div panel called .trpanel and a button called #trigger2 (it is a next button). Then I have a series of divs with texts that contain translations. I want when I press the button (called next) to cycle through the translations one by one on the trpanel.
var ltranslation = [];
ltranslation[0] = $("#translation-en-1").html();
ltranslation[1] = $("#translation-ur-en").html();
ltranslation[2] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[3] = $("#translation-it-en").html();
ltranslation[4] = $("#translation-sp-en").html();
ltranslation[5] = $("#translation-po-en").html();
ltranslation[6] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[7] = $("#translation-de-en").html();
var l= ltranslation;
$("#trigger2").off('click').on('click',function(){
for (var i = 0; i <= ltranslation.length; i++){
if (i==7){i=0;}
$(".trpanel").html.ltranslation[i]; or ???//replace().ltranslation[]+i??? the code throws errors
}
});
I am quite new to Javascript and i am getting a bit confused with the types of objects and arrays and loops. I managed once to add the htmls but without replacing them ... so they all came one after the other. The i tried to change the code and it hasn't worked since. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A lot of guessing, but seems like you are trying to do this :
var trans = $('[id^="translation-"]'),
idx = 0;
$("#trigger2").on('click',function(){
$(".trpanel").html( trans.eq(idx).html() );
idx = idx > 6 ? 0 : idx+1;
});
FIDDLE

I think you are trying to do this:
if (i == 7) {
i = 0; // I don't really know why you are doing this, but it will reset the loop
}
$(".trpanel").html(ltranslation[i]); //I'm passing ltranslation[i] to the html method. Instead of .html.ltranslation[i].
}
Also, without seeing any html, I'm not sure but I think you may want to iterate over .trpanel ?
Something like:
$(".trpanel").eq(i).html(ltranslation[i]);
Another thing (so you can make your code clearer I think). You can abstract the array population in a function, like this:
var ltranslation = [];
var languages = ["en-1", "ur-en", "fr-en", "it-en", "sp-en", "po-en", "fr-en", "de-en"];
$.each(languages, function(index) {
ltranslation[index] = $("#translation-" + this).html();
});
// Then you can use ltranslation

If you want to flip through several translations I would implement it that way:
var translations=["hej","hello", "hallo","hoy"];
var showTranslation=function(){
var current=0;
var len=translations.length;
return function(){
var direction=1;
if (current>=len) current=0;
$("#text").text(translations[current]);
current+=direction;
}
}();
$("#butt").on("click", showTranslation);
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Xr9fz/
Further: You should give your translations a class, so you could easily grab all of them with a single line:
$(".translation).each(function(index,value){ ltranslation.push(value); })

From the question : I managed once to add the htmls but without replacing them -
I think you want to add all of these items into $(".trpanel"). First, dont take the HTML of each element, clone the element itself :
//method ripped from Nico's answer.
var ltranslation = [];
var languages = ["en-1", "ur-en", "fr-en", "it-en", "sp-en", "po-en", "fr-en", "de-en"];
$.each(languages, function(index) {
ltranslation[index] = $("#translation-" + this).clone();
});
Then you could append everything into the container, so add the htmls but without replacing them. append takes in an array without replacing the previous html.
$("#trigger2").off('click').on('click',function() {
$(".trpanel").append(ltranslation);
});

I don't know what exactly you're tring to do, but I've put comments in your code to help you better understand what your code is doing. The net effect of your code is this (which I doubt you want) :
$("#trigger2").off('click').on('click',function(){
$(".trpanel").html(ltranslation[7]);
});
This is your code with some comments and minor changes
var ltranslation = [];
ltranslation[0] = $("#translation-en-1").html();
ltranslation[1] = $("#translation-ur-en").html();
ltranslation[2] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[3] = $("#translation-it-en").html();
ltranslation[4] = $("#translation-sp-en").html();
ltranslation[5] = $("#translation-po-en").html();
ltranslation[6] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[7] = $("#translation-de-en").html();
var l= ltranslation;
$("#trigger2").off('click').on('click',function(){
for (var i = 0; i < ltranslation.length; i++){
//if (i==7){i=0;} <-- This will cause an infinite loop won't it? are you trying to reset i? i will reset next time loop is called,
$(".trpanel").html(ltranslation[i]); //<-- this will overwrite elements with class .trpanel ltranslation.length times...
///you'll see only the value of translation[7] in the end
}
});
EDIT
To do what you want to do based on your comments, try this:
var ltranslation = [];
ltranslation[0] = $("#translation-en-1").html();
ltranslation[1] = $("#translation-ur-en").html();
ltranslation[2] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[3] = $("#translation-it-en").html();
ltranslation[4] = $("#translation-sp-en").html();
ltranslation[5] = $("#translation-po-en").html();
ltranslation[6] = $("#translation-fr-en").html();
ltranslation[7] = $("#translation-de-en").html();
var counter = 0;//a global counter variable
$("#trigger2").click(function(){ //eeverytime button is clicked do this
$(".trpanel").html(ltranslation[counter]); //set the html to an element of array
counter++; //increment counter
if(counter==ltranslation.length) //reset the counter if its bigger than array len
counter=0;
});

Can't set the value of input with Javascript

I'm trying to change the value of an input field with Javascript.
I tried everything, but nothing seems to works. I tried putting the 5 between quotation marks and using jquery. I also double-checked the array and everything.
Here is the input code:
<input type="number" id="id_[SOME_ID_HERE]" value="0">
and the loop used to update the values.
for (var i = 0; i < shoppingCart.length; i++) {
var val = shoppingCart[i];
document.getElementById("id_" + val.substring(3)).value = 5;
}
jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/zkTud/
EDIT: Seems like it doesn't work with type="text" as well...
EDIT2: Thank you everyone who answered. My problem was actually something else.
The input was loaded from another page, and it took time and the for loop I had problem with (see above) was executed before the file was done loading.
All I did was to move the for loop as is to the callback function and it works now.
Thanks anyways!
I really appreciate the help I'm getting in this site! :)

The problem is that your call to substring is returning too much of the string, so there are no elements found by getElementById. Change it to this:
for(var i = 0; i < shoppingCart.length; i++) {
var val = shoppingCart[i];
document.getElementById("id_" + val.substring(5)).value = 5;
}
Here's an updated fiddle.
The substring method (when called with one argument) returns the characters from the index specified to the end of the string. Since you are specifying index 3, you get "d_1", "d_2" etc. when actually you just want the number.
Alternatively, you could of course change the string to which you append the substring, but I think that would be more confusing to read (not immediately obvious which element will be returned):
document.getElementById("i" + val.substring(3)).value = 5;
