jQuery/Javascript compare two tables against each other

I need to compare two HTML tables' rows assuming that data in first cell can be duplicated but data in second cell is always unique. I need to find whether first cell AND second cell in table1 is the same as data in first cell AND second cell in table2 for instance:
Table1:
<Table>
<tr>
<td>123</td>
<td>321</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>545</td>
<td>345</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>0</td>
<td>312</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>123</td>
<td>323331</td>
</tr>
</Table>
Second table:
<table>
<tr>
<td>545</td>
<td>345</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>545</td>
<td>3122</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>123</td>
<td>321</td>
</tr>
</table>
The result of this should be:
123 321 - good, do nothing
545 345 - good, do nothing
545 3122 - wrong its not in table1 <-
Here's what I've got so far...
$('#runCheck').click(function(){
var firstTable = $('#firstDiv table tr');
var secondTable = $('#secDiv table tr');
$(secondTable).each(function(index){
var $row = $(this);
var secTableCellZero = $row.find('td')[0].innerHTML;
var secTableCellOne = $row.find('td')[1].innerHTML;
$(firstTable).each(function(indexT){
if ($(this).find('td')[0].innerHTML === secTableCellZero){
if ($(this).find('td')[1].innerHTML !== secTableCellOne){
$('#thirdDiv').append("first: " + secTableCellZero + " second: " + secTableCellOne+"<br>");
}
}
});
});
});
Where am I going it wrong?
Just to clarify once again:
2nd table says :
row1 - john|likesCookies
row2 - peter|likesOranges
1st table says :
row1 - john|likesNothing
row2 - john|likesCookies
row3 - steward|likesToTalk
row4 - peter|likesApples
now it should say :
john - value okay
peter - value fail.
a lot alike =VLOOKUP in excel

Check this working fiddle : here
I've created two arrays which store values in each row of tables 1 and 2 as strings. Then I just compare these two arrays and see if each value in array1 has a match in array 2 using a flag variable.
Snippet :
$(document).ready(function() {
var table_one = [];
var table_two = [];
$("#one tr").each(function() {
var temp_string = "";
count = 1;
$(this).find("td").each(function() {
if (count == 2) {
temp_string += "/";
}
temp_string = temp_string + $(this).text();
count++;
});
table_one.push(temp_string);
});
$("#two tr").each(function() {
var temp_string = "";
count = 1;
$(this).find("td").each(function() {
if (count == 2) {
temp_string += "/";
temp_string = temp_string + $(this).text();
} else {
temp_string = temp_string + $(this).text();
}
count++;
});
table_two.push(temp_string);
});
var message = "";
for (i = 0; i < table_two.length; i++) {
var flag = 0;
var temp = 0;
table_two_entry = table_two[i].split("/");
table_two_cell_one = table_two_entry[0];
table_two_cell_two = table_two_entry[1];
for (j = 0; j < table_one.length; j++) {
table_one_entry = table_one[j].split("/");
table_one_cell_one = table_one_entry[0];
table_one_cell_two = table_one_entry[1];
console.log("1)" + table_one_cell_one + ":" + table_one_cell_two);
if (table_two_cell_one == table_one_cell_one) {
flag++;
if (table_one_cell_two == table_two_cell_two) {
flag++;
break;
} else {
temp = table_one_cell_two;
}
} else {}
}
if (flag == 2) {
message += table_two_cell_one + " " + table_two_cell_two + " found in first table<br>";
} else if (flag == 1) {
message += table_two_cell_one + " bad - first table has " + temp + "<br>";
} else if (flag == 0) {
message += table_two_cell_one + " not found in first table<br>";
}
}
$('#message').html(message);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

If I understand your requirements, it would be easier to read the first table and store the couples as strings: 123/321, 545/345, etc...
Than you can read the second table and remove from the first list all the rows found in both.
What remains in the list are couples that do not match.

From purely an efficiency standpoint if you loop through the first table just once and create an object using the first cell value as keys and an array of values for second cells, you won't have to loop through that table numerous times
this then makes the lookup simpler also
var firstTable = $('#firstDiv table tr');
var secondTable = $('#secDiv table tr');
var firstTableData = {}
firstTable.each(function() {
var $tds = $(this).find('td'),
firstCellData = $tds.eq(0).html().trim(),
secondCellData == $tds.eq(1).html().trim();
if (!firstTableData[firstCellData]) {
firstTableData[firstCellData] = []
}
firstTableData[firstCellData].push(secondCellData)
})
$(secondTable).each(function(index) {
var $tds = $(this).find('td');
var secTableCellZero = $tds.eq(0).html().trim();
var secTableCellOne = $tds.eq(1).html().trim();
if (!firstTableData.hasOwnProperty(secTableCellZero)) {
console.log('No match for first cell')
} else if (!firstTableData[secTableCellZero].indexOf(secTableCellOne) == -1) {
console.log('No match for second cell')
}
});
I'm not sure what objective is when matches aren't found

Sum column totals depending on text of another column using jQuery

I have this code that I use to calculate totals in specific columns based on the text in a different column. It works just fine, but I'm learning, so I would like to know if there is way to consolidate this code. As you can see I run a "each()" twice, once for each column. The first each check for "A" in the first column, then goes to the second column and adds the rows that meet the criteria. Similar on the second column, just that it looks for "B" and add columns 3. Is there a way to run the each function only once and check both column at the same time?
JS:
//Second Column
var total = 0;
$("#theTable tr:contains('A') td:nth-of-type(2)").each(function () {
var pending = parseInt($(this).text());
total += pending;
});
$("#theTable tfoot tr:last-of-type td:nth-of-type(2)").text(total);
//Third Column
var total2 = 0;
$("#theTable tr:contains('B') td:nth-of-type(3)").each(function () {
var pending2 = parseInt($(this).text());
total2 += pending2;
});
$("#theTable tfoot tr:last-of-type td:nth-of-type(3)").text(total2);
HTML:
<table id="theTable">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>MONTH</th>
<th>PENDING</th>
<th>DENIED</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody></tbody>
<tr>
<td>A</td>
<td>2</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>B</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A</td>
<td>3</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>C</td>
<td>3</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A</td>
<td>2</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>B</td>
<td>4</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<td>TOTALS:</td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</tfoot>
This may look simple for some of you, but again, I'm just learning some JS now.
Thanks!

You could try something like this:
var total = {A:{row:1,t:0},B:{row:2,t:0}};
$('#theTable tr').each(function() {
$row = $(this);
$.each(total, function(key, col) {
rowFil = $row.filter(':contains("' + key + '")');
col.t += (rowFil) ? +rowFil.find('td:eq(' + col.row + ')').text() : 0;
});
});
$("#theTable tfoot tr:last td:eq(1)").text(total.A.t);
$("#theTable tfoot tr:last td:eq(2)").text(total.B.t);

someThing of this sort might Help ...
var trs = $('#'+tblID).find('tr');
var total1 = 0;
var total2 = 0;
$.each(trs, function(k, v) {
if ($(v).text == "A"){
total1 += parseInt($(v).parent('tr').find('td:eq(2)').text());
}
if ($(v).text == "B"){
total2 += parseInt($(v).parent('tr').find('td:eq(3)').text())
}
});

Here is another approach - I've summed up all statistics for all possible values:
var totals = [];
$('#theTable tbody tr').each(function(e) {
var tds= $(this).find('td');
var index = $(tds[0]).text();
var pending = parseInt($(tds[1]).text(), 10);
var denied = parseInt($(tds[2]).text(), 10);
if (totals[index] == undefined)
totals[index] = { Pending: 0, Denied: 0 };
totals[index].Pending += pending;
totals[index].Denied += denied;
});
for (var key in totals)
$('#theTable tfoot').append('<tr><td>'+key+'</td><td>'+
totals[key].Pending+'</td><td>'+totals[key].Denied+'</td></tr>');
I've also updated markup a little, here is jsfiddle. The code may be not so pretty, but doing more stuff and can be refactored.

Creating a second table with the sums makes it easier to analyse the data.
SOLUTION
JS
//make a list of unique months
var months = [];
$('#theTable tr td:nth-of-type(1)').each(function(){
var month = $(this).text();
if(months.indexOf(month) < 0) months.push(month);
});
console.log('months', months);
//make a data structure with sums
var data = {};
var tr = $('#theTable tr');
$.each(months, function(){
var month = this;
data[month] = {
pending: 0,
denied: 0
};
tr.each(function(){
var ch = $(this).children();
var m = $(ch[0]).text();
var pending = $(ch[1]).text();
var denied = $(ch[2]).text();
if(m == month) {
data[month].pending += parseInt(pending);
data[month].denied += parseInt(denied);
}
});
});
console.log('data', data);
//make a table with the data
var table = $('<table>');
table.append($('<tr>'+
'<th>MONTH</th>'+
'<th>PENDING</th>'+
'<th>DENIED</th>'+
'</tr>'));
$.each(data, function(month){
table.append($('<tr>'+
'<td>'+month+'</td>'+
'<td>'+data[month].pending+'</td>'+
'<td>'+data[month].denied+'</td>'+
'</tr>'));
});
$('body').append(table);

How do I select rows that correspond to a rowspan?

I have a dynamically generated table that I am trying to change the background color of certain rows in. Sometimes there are rows with rowspans and I cant figure out how to get all of the rows that correspond to the one "row." I've googled my brains out and found this jsfiddle which is pretty close to what i need (in a logic sense)
http://jsfiddle.net/DamianS1987/G2trb/
basically i have something like this:
and I want to be able to highlight full rows at a time like this:
but the only highlighting i can achieve on rowspan rows is this:
Here is my code (different from jsfiddle but essentially same logic)
CSS:
.highlightedClass{
background-color: #AEAF93;
}
HTML:
<table border="1" class="altTable">
<th>ID</th>
<th>NAME</th>
<th>Miles</th>
<th>WORK</th>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="td_id">999B</td>
<td class="td_name ">John</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">702.4</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">Y</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="td_id" rowspan="2">111A</td>
<td class="td_name">Tom</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">446.5</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">Y</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="td_name">Becky</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">446.5</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">A</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
JAVASCRIPT:
for(var j=0; j < inspection.length; j++){
var $tr = $('<tr></tr>');
var $td_id = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_id').html(inspection.id);
$tr.append($td_id);
$table.append($tr);
$.each(inspection[i], function(index, value){
var $td_name, $td_miles,$td_workEvent;
if(index > 0){
var $2nd_tr = $('<tr></tr>');
$td_name = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_name').html(value.stationSt);
$td_miles = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_miles').html(value.miles);
$td_workEvent = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_workEvent').html(value.code);
$2nd_tr.append($td_name);
$2nd_tr.append($td_miles);
$2nd_tr.append($td_workEvent);
$table.append($2nd_tr);
$td_id.attr('rowSpan',index+1);
if($td_id.text() === content().id){
$2nd_tr.addClass("highlightedClass");
}else{
if($2nd_tr.hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$2nd_tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
}
}
$('#workevent').on('click', function(){
$tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
});
}else{
$td_name = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_name').html(value.stationSt);
$td_miles = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_miles').html(value.miles);
$td_workEvent = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_workEvent').html(value.code);
$tr.append($td_name);
$tr.append($td_miles);
$tr.append($td_workEvent);
$table.append($tr);
if($td_id.text() === content().id){
$tr.addClass("highlightedClass");
}else{
if($tr.hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
}
}
$('#workevent').on('click', function(){
$tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
});
}
});

You need to look for any rowspan= attribute in the selected tds and if present, select the subsequent row(s) as well. This example should support any rowspan value (it appends subsequent rows based on the rowspan count):
Final version: JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TrueBlueAussie/G2trb/22/
$('td').bind('click', function () {
var $row = $(this).closest('tr');
// What row index is the clicked row?
var row = $row.index(); // Subtract heading row
// Does the clicked row overlap anything following?
var rowspan = ~~$row.find('td[rowspan]').attr('rowspan') || 0;
// Get all rows except the heading, up to the last overlapped row
var $rows = $row.parent().children().slice(1, row + rowspan);
row--; // Subtract the heading row we excluded
// Now see if any preceding rows overlap the clicked row
$rows.each(function (i) {
var $tr = $(this);
// Only check first rowspan of a row
var rowspan = ~~$tr.find('td[rowspan]').attr('rowspan') || 0;
// If the rowspan is before the clicked row but overlaps it
// Or it is a row we included after the selection
if ((i < row && ((rowspan + i) > row)) || i > row) {
$row = $row.add($tr);
}
});
$row.toggleClass('green');
});
First attempt JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TrueBlueAussie/G2trb/18/
$('td').bind('click', function () {
var $td = $(this);
var $row = $td.closest('tr');
var $tds = $row.find('td');
$tds.each(function(){
var rowspan = ~~$(this).attr('rowspan');
while (--rowspan > 0){
$row = $row.add($row.next());
}
});
$row.toggleClass('green');
});
It needs to be tweaked for the child row that sits under a previous rowspan, but am working on that too.
Notes:
~~ is a shortcut to convert a string to an integer.
the || 0 converts undefined values to 0.
$row = $row.add($tr) is appending row elements to a jQuery collection/object.

In fixing my issue (going off what TrueBlueAussie gave me) I came up with the following solution.
CSS:
.highlightedClass{
background-color: #AEAF93;
}
HTML:
<table border="1" class="altTable">
<th>ID</th>
<th>NAME</th>
<th>Miles</th>
<th>WORK</th>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="td_id">999B</td>
<td class="td_name ">John</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">702.4</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">Y</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="td_id" rowspan="2">111A</td>
<td class="td_name">Tom</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">446.5</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">Y</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="td_name">Becky</td>
<td class="td_cumMiles">446.5</td>
<td class="td_workEvent">A</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
JAVASCRIPT:
for(var j=0; j < inspection.length; j++){
var $tr = $('<tr></tr>');
var $td_id = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_id').html(inspection.id);
$tr.append($td_id);
$table.append($tr);
$.each(inspection[i], function(index, value){
var $td_name, $td_miles,$td_workEvent;
if(index > 0){
var $2nd_tr = $('<tr></tr>');
$td_name = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_name').html(value.stationSt);
$td_miles = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_miles').html(value.miles);
$td_workEvent = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_workEvent').html(value.code);
$2nd_tr.append($td_name);
$2nd_tr.append($td_miles);
$2nd_tr.append($td_workEvent);
$table.append($2nd_tr);
$td_id.attr('rowSpan',index+1);
if($td_id.text() === content().td_id){
$2nd_tr.addClass("highlightedClass");
}else{
if($2nd_tr.hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$2nd_tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
}
}
$('#workevent').on('click', function(){
if($td_id.text() === content().td_id){
$2nd_tr.addClass("highlightedClass");
}else{
if($2nd_tr.hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$2nd_tr.removeClass("highlightedClass");
}
}
});
}else{
$td_name = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_name').html(value.stationSt);
$td_miles = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_miles').html(value.miles);
$td_workEvent = $('<td></td>').addClass('td_workEvent').html(value.code);
$tr.append($td_name);
$tr.append($td_miles);
$tr.append($td_workEvent);
$table.append($tr);
if($td_id.text() === content().id){
$tr.addClass("highlightedClass");
}else{
if($tr.hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$tr.removeClass('highlightedClass');
}
}
}
});
This was in a nested if statement. below like three if statements, i put this:
$('#workevent').on('click', function(){
var flag= false;
$('#altTable > tbody > tr').each(function() {
$td_id= $(this).find('.td_id');
if($td_id.text() === ''){
if(flag === true){
$(this).addClass("highlightedClass");
flag = true;
}
}else{
if(if($td_id.text() === content().idtd_id{){
if($(this).hasClass("highlightedClass")){
flag = true;
}else{
$(this).addClass("highlightedClass");
flag = true;
}
}else{
flag = false;
if($(this).hasClass("highlightedClass")){
$(this).removeClass("highlightedClass");
}
}
}
});
});
This is what worked for me. I selected TrueBlueAussie's answer because it helped get me my specific answer. Hopefully both answers can help someone else in the future.

Javascript highest number in each tr, skip 3 columns

I have a table, that will add a class to the highest number in each tr.
I want it to skip the first 3 columns and not search them. And then if there are multiple of the highest then bold those too.
I will paste code here as well as fiddle.
HTML
<style>
.highest {
font-weight: bold;
}
</style>
<table width="300">
<tr>
<th>no</th>
<th>no</th>
<th>no</th>
<th>yes</th>
<th>yes</th>
<th>yes</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>150</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>10.5</td>
<td>1.5</td>
<td>12</td>
<td>9.3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>12.0</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>150</td>
<td>150</td>
<td>13.5</td>
<td>150</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>160</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>115</td>
<td>15</td>
<td>11</td>
<td>160</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>145</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>151</td>
<td>12</td>
<td>18</td>
<td>18</td>
</tr>
</table>
JAVASCRIPT
jQuery(function($) {
$.fn.max = function(callback) {
var max = null,
maxIndex = null;
this.each(function() {
var value = callback.call(this);
if (+value === value) {
if (!max || value > max) {
max = value;
maxIndex = $(this).index();
}
}
});
return max !== null ? this.eq(maxIndex) : $();
};
}(jQuery));
$('tr').each(function()
$(this).children('td').max(function() {
var value = +$(this).text();
if (!isNaN(value)) {
return value;
}
}).addClass('highest');
});
FIDDLE
http://jsfiddle.net/65S7N/96/

Just add a selector as a parameter to the plugin, and filter by that :
jQuery(function($) {
$.fn.max = function(selector) {
var elems = $();
this.each(function() {
var max = 0,
ele = $(this).find(selector).each(function(i,el) {
var n = parseFloat($(el).text());
if ( n > max ) max = n;
}).filter(function() {
return parseFloat($(this).text()) === max;
});
elems = elems.add(ele);
});
return elems;
};
}(jQuery));
$('tr').max('td:gt(2)').addClass('highest');
FIDDLE

To skip the first 3 columns, use:
$(this).children('td').filter(function(i) {
return i > 2;
}).max(...)
The filter function receives the zero-based position of the element within the collection.
If you want to highlight multiple entries that have the max value, maxIndex needs to be an array, not a single value. When value === max, push the current index onto the array. Or make it a jQuery collection of elements, rather than indexes, and add the current element to it.

$('tr').each(function(){
var this = $(this);
var max = -Infinity;
var indexes = [];
this.find('td:gt(2)').each(function(index){
var this_num = ($(this).text() >> 0);
if ( max < this_num ) {
max = this_num;
indexes = [index];
} else if (max == this_num ) {
indexes.push(this_num);
}
});
$(indexes).each(function(index){
this.find('td:eq('+index+')').addClass('highest');
});
});
should work.. haven't tested :|

If a <td> contains "a" then make the <tr> background red but the each() is to slow

How do you write this so it runs faster. It looks like because I'm using an each() it is slowing it down.
Can I use filter()?
$("#X tr").each(function () {
if ($(this).find("table td:eq(1)").text() == "a") {
$(this).css("background":"red");
}
});
<table id = "X">
<tr >
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
</tr>
<tr >
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
...
<tr >
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
</tr>
</table>
thanks

I'd suggest:
$('td:contains("a")').closest('tr').css('background-color','red');
JS Fiddle demo.
Or, in to affect all ancestor tr elements:
$('td:contains("a")').parents('tr').css('background-color','red');
JS Fiddle demo.
Or to affect all tr elements with descendent (however deeply nested):
$('tr').filter(
function(){
return $(this).find('td:contains("a")').length;
}).css('background-color','red');
JS Fiddle demo.
Added a function, lookAt() that might be used instead:
function lookAt(haystack, needle) {
if (!haystack) {
return false;
}
else {
needle = needle ? needle : 'a';
for (var i = 0, len = haystack.childNodes.length; i < len; i++) {
var cur = haystack.childNodes[i];
if (cur.nodeType == 3 && cur.nodeValue.indexOf(needle) > -1){
return true;
}
else if (i == (len-1)) {
return false;
}
}
}
}
$('#table td').filter(
function() {
return lookAt(this);
}).css('background-color', 'red');​
JS Fiddle demo
JS Perf test examining the lookAt() function approach against the return $(this).is(':contains("a")') Sizzle-based approach.
For reference, for a closer comparison the JS Perf jQuery test was the following:
$('#table td').filter(
function() {
return $(this).is(':contains("a")')
}).css('background-color', 'red');​
JS Fiddle demo.

You can use the :contains selector: http://jsfiddle.net/Af6Nz/1/.
​$("#X tr:contains('a')").css("background-color", "red");​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Using contains and parent (to go back to the tr that we want to colorize) :
$(this).find('td:eq(0):contains("a")').parent().css("background","red");
or using has :
$(this).find('tr:has(td:eq(0):contains("a"))').css("background","red");
If you don't need the eq condition, use
$(this).find('td:contains("a")').parent().css("background","red");
Keep in mind that eq is 0-based (as your test case didn't involve a matching element with 1 instead of 0).
Demonstration : http://jsfiddle.net/KRqQN/

If you're concerned about performance, the following might help.
var getText = (function() {
var div = document.createElement('div');
if (typeof div.textContent == 'string') {
return function (el) {
return el.textContent;
};
} else if (typeof div.innerText == 'string') {
