jQuery Calculate based columns text
Hello Experts,
I need to perform something simple calculation yet when I look at my coding it seems quite long so i think there should be a better way, more pro :-)
I have a 7 columns table in the following structure:
01 | YELLOW | text | text | text | FREE
02 | BLUE | text | text | text | RESERVED
03 | BROWN | text | text | text | SOLD
There are many more COLORS ....
What I need to do using jQuery is:
1). Calculate how many YELLOW, BLUE, BROWN are listed (how many from each)
2). How many from each are FREE, RESERVED+SOLD (reserved+sold should be calculated as SOLD.)
I started like this but it is going to be pretty much long and i am not sure that's the most efficient way.

var TotalYellow = $('table td:contains("YELLOW")').size();
var TotalBLUE = $('table td:contains("BLUE")').size();
var TotalBrown = $('table td:contains("BROWN")').size(); var TotalRED = $('table td:contains("RED")').size(); $(TotalYellow).next().next().next().next().text(); ....SOLUTION

And it counts well the total but nothing else...
OK sorry I posted then, but the description you gave in question, said nothing about what container you need the COUNT results in, and as you said -
"I need to print each result on a different place on that page",
does not mean much to someone deciding what code operations to use to get a result.
using arrays seems like the most efficient to me

Hello Slick812, Hello Julian,
Thank you, you have always been so helpful. I decided, since the the solutions were sufficient to resolve my task is to actually hook up the database and perform queries for each. Yet thank you so much, always!

Thank you. but you are using JavaScript which is even harder for me.
I need to print each result (e.g. YELLOW, total= 4, free= 1, sold= 3) on a different place on that page.
I do not know what to do with your code :-(
