You'd be way better off doing this the "Angular way". No JQuery required! In fact, if you find yourself doing things the "JQuery way" you're probably doing it wrong. Mark Rajcok had a really good question (and answer) about this same thing on StackOverflow a while ago:
app.js
//declare your application module.
var app = angular.module('myApp', []);
//declare a controller
app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
//function to update the list
$scope.updateList = function () {
$http.get('/Cont/GetList', function(data) {
$scope.allParameters = data;
});
};
//initial load
$scope.updateList();
});
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div ng-controller="MainCtrl">
<button ng-click="updateList()">Update</button>
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="parameter in allParameters">{{parameter | json}}</li>
</ul>
<!-- EDIT: Because you requested a select.
or if you wanted to do a select list
assuming every object in your array had a "name" property
you wanted to display in the option text, you could do
something like the following:
(NOTE: ng-model is required for ng-options to work)
-->
<select ng-model="selectedValue" ng-options="p as p.name for p in allParameters"></select>
<!-- this is just to display the value you've selected -->
<p>Selected:</p>
<pre>{{selectedValue | json}}</pre>
</div>
</body>
</html>
EDIT: A common problem in IE
So first of all, if you're having a problem in IE, I'd recommend hitting F12 and seeing what errors you're getting in the console.
The most common issue I've seen that breaks things in IE relate to commands such as console.log() which don't exist in IE. If that's the case, you'll need to create a stub, like so:
//stub in console.log for IE.
console = console || {};
console.log = console.log || function () {};
