Iterating JSON data using Jquery



“JSON” (Javascript Object Notation) is Open standard to transmit data between endpoints. It is light weighted than XML, that’s why it is commonly used in web applications and distributed applications.Here I am describing an example to simply use JSON in your application and how to iterate JSON object if it have multiple rows.

Declaring a JSON object:

var EmployeeList =
{
Employee:
[
{Name: "uma", Age: 25, City: "Delhi"},          
{Name: "lalit", Age: 26, City: "Pune" },
{Name: "dev", Age: 29, City: "Banglore"}
]
}
In above declaration, EmployeeList contains an employee collection.Suppose we have to shown this data into table empbyFor and empbyEach.
<div>
<h4>Iteration using For</h4>
<table id="empbyFor" border="1">
<thead>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Age</td>
<td>City</td>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>

<h4>Iteration using Each</h4>
<table id="empbyEach" border="1">
<thead>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Age</td>
<td>City</td>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>

</div>

To append data for these tables you can follow one of below approaches.


Iterating JSON data by FOR Loop:


function ShowDatabyForLoop(eList)
{
var len = $(eList).length;
var tr = "<tr>";
for(var i=0;i<len;i++)
{
tr += "<td>"+eList[i].Name+"</td>";
tr += "<td>" + eList[i].Age + "</td>";
tr += "<td>" + eList[i].City + "</td>";
tr += "</tr>";
}
$('#empbyFor').append(tr);
}

Iterating JSON data by JQuery each:


function ShowDatabyEach(eList)
{
alert(JSON.stringify(eList))
var tr = "<tr>";
$(eList).each(function (index, element) {
tr += "<td>" + element.Name + "</td>";
tr += "<td>" + element.Age + "</td>";
tr += "<td>" + element.City + "</td>";
tr += "</tr>";
});
$('#empbyEach').append(tr);
}


Output:

Iteration using For:

Name
Age
City
uma
25
Delhi
lalit
26
Pune
dev
29
Banglore

Iteration using Each:


Name
Age
City
uma
25
Delhi
lalit
26
Pune
dev
29
Banglore
