               "employees" : [{
                  ......

               }]);
            $("#container").html(result);
```

```markup
<script type="text/template">
{{#employees}}
    <div> {{name}} </div>
    {{#inStock}}        
    <div><span>Quantity in stock: </span><span>{{quantity}}</span></div>
    {{/inStock}}
    {{^inStock}}
    <div><span>It appears we are out of stock on this item :-(</span></div>
    {{/inStock}}
{{/employees}}
</script>
```

## Functions

is the value of the field is actually a function, you can use like a property . Mustache will call it and this. will be set to the data object itself.

What if we make a section with a function that takes a text and renders
