Store HTML templates in HTML
Question
I need to store HTML templates to use them for Mustache rendering.
<!-- Templates. -->
<span style="display:none">
<span id="tplCard">
{{#.}}
<div class="card">
<div class="caption">
<p>{{caption}}</p>
<button title="Edit" class="toolbar edit"></button>
</div>
</div>
{{/.}}
</span>
<span id="tplRow">
{{#.}}
<tr>
<td>{{id}}</td>
<td>{{caption}}</td>
<td>{{text}}</td>
<td>{{image}}</td>
<td>
<button>Edit</button>
</td>
</tr>
{{/.}}
</span>
</span>
<!-- End of templates. -->
Here is the using:
function FillWithData(container, template, data)
{
var tpl = $('#' + template).html();
var html = Mustache.render(tpl, data);
$('#' + container).append(html);
}
The first template works, but the second one doesn't. Well, the problem is a <TR> is not a valid child for a <SPAN> , so the browser gets rid of them. How to store a random template?

you can store the template data in a script tag. this will prevent the browser from parsing it as html. But you need to keep in mind that your template cannot contain script tags itself ( Including <script> tag in <script type="text/template"> tag ). (this works with <!doctype html> but honestly i can't say for sure if it would work that way cross browser for other doctypes)
you would not need to change much in your setup:
HTML
<script type="text/x-template" id="tplCard">
{{#.}}
<div class="card">
<div class="caption">
<p>{{caption}}</p>
<button title="Edit" class="toolbar edit"></button>
</div>
</div>
{{/.}}
</script>
<script type="text/x-template" id="tplRow">
{{#.}}
<tr>
<td>{{id}}</td>
<td>{{caption}}</td>
<td>{{text}}</td>
<td>{{image}}</td>
<td>
<button>Edit</button>
</td>
</tr>
{{/.}}
</script>
type="text/x-template" is used so that the browser would not try to execute it as a script.
JS
function FillWithData(container, template, data)
{
var tpl = $('#' + template).text()||$('#' + template).html();
var html = Mustache.render(tpl, data);
$('#' + container).append(html);
}
the $('#' + template).text()||$('#' + template).html() is required because in some browser versions you need to use .text() and in the other you need to use .html() to get the content of the script tag.
