Search through multidimensional array JavaScript

This is not a 2D array, this is an array of objects, so this should work:

for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
    console.log(array[i].title); //Log the title of each object.
    if (array[i].title == "Apple") {
        console.log("Found apple!");
    }
}

Also, objects are key/val pairs, denoted by key : val, not key = val. Your array has syntax errors and shouldn't run.

To be pedantic, you have an array of objects, not a 2d array. Also your syntax for the object parameters is incorrect.

You can use filter() on the array to find the values:

var array = [
    { css: "SS", title: "Apple"}, 
    { css: "SS", title: "Orange"}, 
    { css: "SS", title: "Banana"}
];
var matches = array.filter(function (obj) { return obj.title == "Apple" });
if (matches.length) {
    // Apple was in the array...
}

If you have an object like this

var peoples = [
  { "name": "bob", "dinner": "pizza" },
  { "name": "john", "dinner": "sushi" },
  { "name": "larry", "dinner": "hummus" }
];

Ignore what's below. Use the filter method!

peoples.filter(function (person) { return person.dinner == "sushi" });
  // => [{ "name": "john", "dinner": "sushi" }]

You can search for people who have "dinner": "sushi" using a map

peoples.map(function (person) {
  if (person.dinner == "sushi") {
    return person
  } else {
    return null
  }
}); // => [null, { "name": "john", "dinner": "sushi" }, null]

or a reduce

peoples.reduce(function (sushiPeople, person) {
  if (person.dinner == "sushi") {
    return sushiPeople.concat(person);
  } else {
    return sushiPeople
  }
}, []); // => [{ "name": "john", "dinner": "sushi" }]

I'm sure you are able to generalize this to arbitrary keys and values!

fruits probably is a array, fruits["title"] therefor doesn't exist. You might want to transform your data:

var fruitTitles = fruits.map(function(f) { return f.title; });
jQuery.inArray("Apple", fruitTitles);

From the jQuery docs: jQuery.inArray( value, array [, fromIndex ] )

I've never used this method, but a quick guess: var hasIt = jQuery.inArray({css:"SS",title:"Apple"}, myArray);

As the $.inArray() documentation explains, the first argument to the function is the value to search for. Your array does not have any elements that are equal to the string "Apple" that you have supplied in the first argument because none of your array elements are strings (they're all objects).

The second argument to $.inArray() is supposed to be the array itself, but (assuming fruits is the array you show) fruits["title"] is undefined because your array has no property called "title", only the objects in the array have that property.

Try this instead:

var index = $.inArray("Apple", $.map(fruits, function(el) { return el.title; }));

try this code

var fruits = [
    { css:"SS", title:"Apple"}, 
    { css:"SS", title:"Orange"}, 
    { css:"SS", title:"Banana"}
];

jQuery.grep(fruits,function(fruit){return fruit.title == 'Apple'});
