Question

In jsTree ,How to get Node information by node id ?

I know id of following node i.e 295 then how to get complete node information

<item id="295" parent_id="192" title="itemTitle"   version="1">    
            <content><name>Bhushan Sambhus</name></content>  
</item> 

above xml part rendered into jsTree is as follows

    $("#treeViewDiv").jstree({ 
        "xml_data" : {
            "data" : "" + 
"<root>" + 
    "<item id="295" parent_id="192" title="itemTitle"   version="1">"+    
            "<content><name>Bhushan Sambhus</name></content>  "+
     "</item>"
        }
        "plugins" : [ "themes", "xml_data","ui" ]
    });

Something like following psudo code

 function getNodeByNodeID(node_id){
          // some code
          // $.jstree.get_node ...... etc ?
          // 
           return relatedNodeInformation;
        }




var nodeInfo =  getNodeByNodeID(providedNodeID) // psudo code
      // any api in jstree to get nodeInfo by  providedNodeID?


       var parent_id_value = nodInfo.attr("parent_id");    
       var title_value     = nodInfo.attr("title");    
       var version_value   = nodInfo.attr("version");
       var node_name       = nodInfo.children("a").text()
alert(parent_id_value+" :: "+title_value+" :: "+version_value+" :: "+node_name);

Input : 295

Output: 192 :: node_name :: 1 :: node_name

Any help or guidance in this matter would be appreciated

If I’m understanding your question correctly, you can accomplish what you want to do like this:

var nodInfo = $("#" + providedNodeId);

var parent_id_value = nodInfo.attr("parent_id");    
var title_value     = nodInfo.attr("title");    
var version_value   = nodInfo.attr("version");
var node_name       = nodInfo.children("a").text();

alert(parent_id_value+" :: "+title_value+" :: "+version_value+" :: "+node_name);
