Answer 1

I suggest to use Array#filter() and assign the result to the wanted variable.

var array = [{ "email": "[email protected]", "pass": "akhil@1", "name": "akhil", "car1": "zen", "year1": "2012", "member": "no", "mobile": "(903) 309-8713" }, { "email": "[email protected]", "pass": "Smith@1", "name": "suresh", "car1": "zen", "year1": "2012", "member": "yes", "mobile": "(903) 309-8799" }, { "email": "[email protected]", "pass@1": "akhil@1", "name": "rakesh", "car1": "zen", "year1": "2012", "member": "no", "mobile": "(903) 309-2233" }, { "name": "akhil", "email": "[email protected]", "pass": "akhil@123", "mobile": "(903) 309-8713", "car1": "zen", "car2": "", "year1": "2012", "year2": "", "member": "yes" }, { "name": "karan", "email": "[email protected]", "pass": "akhil@123", "mobile": "(903) 309-2233", "car1": "zen", "car2": "", "year1": "2012", "year2": "", "member": "yes" }];

array = array.filter(function (a) {
    return a.email !== '[email protected]';
});

document.write('<pre>' + JSON.stringify(array, 0, 4) + '</pre>');
