This is the JavaScript:
function movie_search()
{
var game_name = document.getElementById('game_name').value;
var raw = "search ""+game_name+"";rnfields cover.url, name, url, screenshots.*; rn";
var requestOptions = {
method: 'POST',
headers: myHeaders,
body: raw,
redirect: 'follow'
};
fetch("https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/https://api.igdb.com/v4/games", requestOptions)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => {
data.forEach(gayme => {
html += "<div class = 'gayme'>"
let keys = Object.keys(gayme);
keys.forEach((key) => {
html += gayme[key]
})
html += "</div>"
const game = `<ul><li><img src = "https:${gayme.cover.url}"><br><h4>Name:</h4><h3>${gayme.name}</h3><br><a href = "${gayme.url}">Click for Game Info</a><br><br></li></ul>`;
document.querySelector('.games').innerHTML += game;
})
})
.catch(error => console.log('error', error));
}
document.querySelector(".search").addEventListener("keyup",function(event){
if(event.key == "Enter") {
movie_search ();
}
})
When I search something for the second time, the new resutls list below the previous results.
I want to add something to the code which will remove the previous results when the button is clicked and will display the new results only.
Please help.
