Use jQuery to convert a table to a div and add th before each td

I am trying to convert all tables to a div and add thth html or th content from each td that is converted to div.

So my table will look like this:

<table>
            <tr>
              <th>Title 1</th>
              <th>Title 2</th>
              <th>Title 3</th>
              <th>Title 4</th>
              <th>Title 5</th>
            </tr>
            <tr>
              <td>Data 1</td>
              <td>Data 2</td>
              <td>Data 3</td>
              <td>Data 4</td>
              <td>Data 5</td>
            </tr>               
        </table>

And I want to convert it like this:

<div class="box">
<div class="row-fname"><span class="fname-label">TH Data</span> : <span class="fname-data">Data 1</span></div>
<div class="row-lname"><span class="lname-label">TH Data</span> : <span class="lname-data">Data 2</span></div>
<div class="row-address"><span class="address-label">TH Data</span> : <span class="address-data">Data 3</span></div>
<div class="row-city"><span class="city-label">TH Data</span> : <span class="city-data">Data 4</span></div>
<div class="row-state"><span class="state-label">TH Data</span> : <span class="state-data">Data 5</span></div>

I found this code that almost works, but can figure out how to get it to get th if there is th and add them before each td data interval.

$('.content table').replaceWith(function() {
    var html = '';

    $('tr', this).each(function() {         
        html += '<div class="box grey-bg">';
        $('th, td', this).each(function() {
            html += '<span>' + $(this).html() + '</span>';
        });
        html += '</div>';
    });

    return '<div class="">' + html + '</div>';
});

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It works:

$('.content table').replaceWith(function() {

    var $th = $(this).find('th'); // get headers
    var th = $th.map(function() {
        return $(this).text();
    }).get(); // and their values

    $th.closest('tr').remove(); // then remove them

    var $d = $('<div>', { 'class': 'box' });

    $('tr', this).each(function(i, el) {
        var $div = $('<div>', {'class': 'inner'}).appendTo($d);
        $('td', this).each(function(j, el) {
            var n = j + 1;
            var $row = $('<div>', {
                'class': 'row-' + n
            });
            $row.append(
            $('<span>', {
                'class': 'label-' + n,
                text: th[j]
            }), ' : ', $('<span>', {
                'class': 'data-' + n,
                text: $(this).text()
            })).appendTo($div);
        });
    });

    return $d;
});

Here is my improvisation :)

Add tags data-nameto each <th>to distinguish field names:

<table>
    <tr>
        <th data-name="fname">Title 1</th>
        <th data-name="lname">Title 2</th>
        <th data-name="address">Title 3</th>
        <th data-name="city">Title 4</th>
        <th data-name="state">Title 5</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>Data 1</td>
        <td>Data 2</td>
        <td>Data 3</td>
        <td>Data 4</td>
        <td>Data 5</td>
    </tr>               
</table>​

. , , .

$("table").replaceWith(function() {
    var block = $("<div />").addClass("box");
    $("tr:first th", this).each(function() {
        var name = $(this).data("name");
        var spanLabel = $("<span />").addClass(name + "-label").html(this.innerHTML);
        var spanData = $("<span />").addClass(name + "-data");
        $("<div />").addClass("row-" + name).append(spanLabel, " : ", spanData).appendTo(block);
    });
    $("tr:last td", this).each(function(index) {
        block.children("div:eq(" + index + ")").children(":last").html(this.innerHTML);
    });
    return block;
});
