Answer 1

You can do it like this:

var model = [{name:'d1',type:'avg'},{name:'cod7',type:'fps'},{name:'war3',type:'rts'}];
var template = '<ul> {{#.}} <li>name:{{name}} and type:{{type}} </li> {{/.}} </ul>';
var html = Mustache.to_html(template, model);

Answer 2

Try this:

var mygames = [{name:'d1',type:'avg'},{name:'cod7',type:'fps'},{name:'war3',type:'rts'}];

var mygame = {
    player: 'viking',
    games: mygames
}
var template = '{{player}} is a good guy<br /> <ul>{{#games}}<li>name:{{name}} and type:{{type}} </li>{{/games}}</ul>';
var html = Mustache.to_html(template, mygame);
var con = document.getElementById('container');
con.innerHTML = html;

Answer 3

you need to do something like this:

var mygames = {games: [{name:'d1',type:'avg'},{name:'cod7',type:'fps'},{name:'war3',type:'rts'}]};

var template= "{{#games}} Player name: {{name}} Type: {{type}}{{/games}}";

var html = Mustache.to_html(template, mygames);
var con = document.getElementById('container');
con.innerHTML = html;

or simply loop over mygames object and append the html

var html="";
var template= "Player name: {{name}} Type: {{type}};"
for (var i=0;i<mygames.length;i++)
{
   html+=Mustache.to_html(template, mygames[i]);
}
var con = document.getElementById('container');
con.innerHTML = html;

Hope this helps
