String.render is a javascript library that contains an extention to the String.prototype. This extention allows you to render a string against complex data structures. The string, as template, is writtent in a Django-like style. (see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/ )

Example

/* in a javascript code */
var persons=[
    {"name":"McDonald","firstname":"JoHn","age":39},
    {"name":"angel","firstname":"michael","age":21},
    {"name":"Collins","firstname":"ANN","age":32}
]
"<ul>{{ for person in persons|dictsort:"age" }}\
  <li class='hcard'>\
    <span class='firstname'>{{ person.name|lower|capfirst }}</span>\
    <span class='name'>{{ person.name|firstcap }}</span>\
  </li>\
{% endfor %}</ul>".render({"persons":persons})

will render :

<ul>
  <li class='hcard'>>
