I am trying to render a table in html using Ajax data payload. The ajax data structure is as follows:-

{"id":733,
 "lastUpdatedBy":"4",
 "lastUpdatedTime":"2013-11-24 03:00:03PM",
 "jobName":"jobnameA",
 "accountName":"accountname1A"
}

The Html for the table to be rendered is as follows:-

    <table id="main_table">
       <thead>
        <tr class="firstline">
        <th>Column1</th>
        <th>Column2</th>
        <th>Column3</th>
     </tr>
    </thead>
     <tbody>
     <tr style="background-color:green; color:white">
        <td  colspan="4" class="flip" id="fisrtsec"> Test Account 19 </td>
     </tr>
    </tbody>
    <tbody class="section">
    <tr>

        <td>item id</td>
        <td>item jobName</td>
        <td>item accountName</td>

    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td></td>
        <td>item 121</td>
        <td>item 122</td>
        <td>item 123</td>
        <td>item 124</td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
      <td></td>
        <td>item 131</td>
        <td>item 132</td>
        <td>item 133</td>
        <td>item 134</td>
      </tr>
     </tbody>
     <tbody>
     <tr style="background-color:green; color:white">
        <td  colspan="4" class="flip"> Section 2 </td>
     </tr>
   </tbody>
   <tbody class="section">
    <tr>
     <td></td>
        <td>item 211</td>
        <td>item 212</td>
        <td>item 213</td>
        <td>item 214</td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
     <td></td>
        <td>item 221</td>
        <td>item 222</td>
        <td>item 223</td>
        <td>item 224</td>
     </tr>
      <tr>
     <td></td>
        <td>item 231</td>
        <td>item 232</td>
        <td>item 233</td>
        <td>item 234</td>
       </tr>
    </tbody>

    </table>

Am using Jquery library. My jquery is

 $.each(data, function(key, val) {
    $('<tr><td>ID: '+key+'</td><td id="'+key+'">'+val+'</td>   
  <tr>').appendTo('#main_table');
     });

Any help is appreciated. Thanks for looking.

    It looks like you are missing some markup at the top of your HTML section. And do you have any JavaScript code to post? What have you tried? What frameworks/libraries are you using, if any? – Drew Gaynor Nov 26 '13 at 00:47

I don't think having multiple tbody's is valid markup. Having said that, try.

('<tr><td>ID: '+key+'</td><td id="'+key+'">'+val+'</td><tr>')
  .appendTo('#main_table tbody:last');

Using :last will append at the end of the table.

  • Thanks for the solution. I tried the above code. It is working fine. However, am looking to toggle the section with class 'flip' (in html table), so that I can show/hide the block - , hence the multiple tags. – Vivek Nov 26 '13 at 19:00
  • I think using multiple tbody elements should be fine. As per the question here - [link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3076708/can-we-have-multiple-tbody-in-same-table?rq=1) – Vivek Nov 26 '13 at 21:24
