Issue with creating string for values in drop down

Question

I have a javascript function that makes a Web Api call and returns the data. I am trying to get the 2 properties of the value returned but am having issues with how to assign the quotes.

    function populateNext(nextDD, nextLbl, apiCall, nextDDText, nextDDVal) {
        $.getJSON("api/" + apiCall + "/" + facility_id)
        .done(function (data) {

        var s = '<option value="-1"></option>'; 


        $.each(data, function (key, val) {
            s += '<option value="' + val.plan_code + '">' + val.plan_code + '</option>';
        });
            $("#" + nextDD).html(s);
        });
    }

The first below line works but how would I change it so that it accepts the values passed in from the function (nextDDVal and nextDDText)?

Works:

s += '<option value="' + val.plan_code + '">' + val.plan_code + '</option>';

What I'm trying to make work:

s += '<option value="' + val. + nextDDVal + '">' + val. + nextDDText + '</option>';

I think you’re looking for this syntax: `val[nextDDVal]` – MTCoster Jan 23 '19 at 22:44 — MTCoster, Jan 23 '19 at 22:44
It should be val.plan_code and val.plan_code – John Doe Jan 23 '19 at 22:45 — John Doe, Jan 23 '19 at 22:45
That was it. Thank you! @MTCoster – John Doe Jan 23 '19 at 22:46 — John Doe, Jan 23 '19 at 22:46
