i have array of objects, follows:

var events = [   { date: "18-02-2016", name: "event a" },   { date: "22-02-2016", name: "event b" },   { date: "19-02-2016", name: "event c" },   { date: "22-02-2016", name: "event d" } ]; 

and have date, example "22-02-2016". how can array object date same given date? in example events b , d.

you use array's filter() function:

function filter_dates(event) {     return event.date == "22-02-2016"; }  var filtered = events.filter(filter_dates); 

the filter_dates() method can standalone in example reused, or inlined anonymous method - totally choice =]

a quick / easy alternative straightforward loop:

var filtered = []; (var = 0; < events.length; i++) {     if (events[i].date == "22-02-2016") {         filtered.push(events[i]);     } }
