Description:
Javascript array forEach() method calls a function for each element in the array.
Syntax:
array.forEach(callback[, thisObject]); |
Here is the detail of parameters:
- callback : Function to test each element of the array.
- thisObject : Object to use as this when executing callback.
Return Value:
Returns created array.
Compatibility:
This method is a JavaScript extension to the ECMA-262 standard; as such it may not be present in other implementations of the standard. To make it work you need to add following code at the top of your script:
if (!Array.prototype.forEach)
{
Array.prototype.forEach = function(fun /*, thisp*/)
{
var len = this.length;
if (typeof fun != "function")
throw new TypeError();
var thisp = arguments[1];
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++)
{
if (i in this)
fun.call(thisp, this[i], i, this);
}
};
}
|
Example:
<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScript Array forEach Method</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (!Array.prototype.forEach)
{
Array.prototype.forEach = function(fun /*, thisp*/)
{
var len = this.length;
if (typeof fun != "function")
throw new TypeError();
var thisp = arguments[1];
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++)
{
if (i in this)
fun.call(thisp, this[i], i, this);
}
};
}
function printBr(element, index, array) {
document.write("<br />[" + index + "] is " + element );
}
[12, 5, 8, 130, 44].forEach(printBr);
</script>
</body>
</html>
|
This will produce following result:
[0] is 12 [1] is 5 [2] is 8 [3] is 130 [4] is 44 |
