javascript - Dynamically adding HTML dropdowns that are filled by Meteor templates -


i hoping below. i'm very new meteor , trying create contextual dropdown row in jquery/js populated data meteor/mongo.

for example have 1 dropdown listing "areas" , listing "systems". initally areas dropdown visible, depenging on choice made areas dropdown reveal/populate new dropdown called "system".

here excerpts:

html:

<hr>               <div class="form-inline">                   <div class="form-group">                 <div id="area_dropdown" class="dropdown">                   <input id="areaval" type="hidden" val="" />                   <button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">area                     <span class="caret"></span></button>                   <ul class="dropdown-menu">                       {{> area}}                    </ul>                 </div>                   </div>                   </div>           <hr>       <template name="area">      {{#each areas}}          <li class="area_dropdown" id="{{id}}">{{alias}}</li>      {{/each}}      </template>      <template name="system">        {{#each systems}}          <li class="system_dropdown" id="{{id}}">{{alias}}</li>      {{/each}}      </template> 

js/meteor:

$(document).on("click", ".area_dropdown", function () {              var dropdownval = this.id;             $('#areaval').val(dropdownval);              session.set({                 area: dropdownval             });              $(this).closest('.dropdown').find('.dropdown-toggle').html($(this).text() + '<span class="caret"></span>');                if (reports.findone({                     area: dropdownval                 })) {                   $(this).closest('.form-inline').append('<div class="form-group"><div id="system_dropdown" class="dropdown"><input id = "systemval" type = "hidden" val = "" /><button class = "btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type = "button" data-toggle = "dropdown" >system<span class = "caret" ></span></button><ul class = "dropdown-menu">{{> system}}</ul></div></div>');               } else {                  $('#system_dropdown').parent().remove();              }        } }); 

the problem lies adding {{> system}} template within .append() has parsed string. i've tried examples online can't tailor needs. can @ all?
