Ok, I am getting an associative array from node server and trying to render it in Jade. I obviously need a foreach loop, but nothing seems to work! I tried these both codes:

- foreach row in rows {
    li= row
- }

and

- rows.forEach(function(item)) {
    li= item
- })

the array I am passing is called "rows". Any idea why this is not working? I am getting this error:

500 SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

and, with the second code:

500 SyntaxError: Unexpected token )
