Why all but 1 Route is working with Backbone Router - javascript

In the script below are various routes and view and routes events built with Backbone.js
Why is it, that all of the routes work as I expect except the last one 'products'.
I originally had it as a very different function but realized it wasn't firing off, but not even as a duplicate of the other views and routes it still wont work.
Anyone have an idea why?
Thanks you!
I am also very new to Backbone.

Your anchor tag for shops has a trailing /
<a href="/#/products/">
Should be
<a href="/#/products">
Removing that made the route work for me.

Can't render template into div

But my content doesn't load... I'm a noobie in backbone.js still so can someone explain what do I doing wrong and how to fix?
ADDED
I have checked my script in debugger. It loads a template and finds my div in the render() function but I can't see any result in browser after, my div is empty still.
I created a plunker with your code, and it works fine for me: link
I think you only forgot to initialize your model:
// Models
var PageState = Backbone.Model.extend({
defaults: {
title: "Title - 1",
subtitle: "Subtitle - 1",
content: "Content",
pages: "1",
state: "games"
}
});

BackBone View not rendering properly and not sure why

I am new to BackBone and am trying to practice rendering from a collection. I know that none of this is supposed to be done in HTML, but a friend gave me this prompt and I want to get it to work. I've done lots of debugging, but I can't tell why Pond View isn't rendering properly?

var PondView = Backbone.View.extend({

You didn't render your view.
Add after view creation:
var Fish = Backbone.Model.extend({
defaults: {
name: "Larry",
image: 'http://www.google.com'
}
});
var PondView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: "#app",
tagName: 'table',

this.listenTo(this.collection, "change:name", this.render);
},
render: function() {
this.$el.html('');
this.collection.each(function(fish) {
this.$el.append('<tr><td>' + fish.get("name") + ' </td><td><img src="' + fish.get('image') + '" /></td></tr>')
}.bind(this))
}
});
var goldfish = new Fish({

var fugu = new Fish({

var tuna = new Fish({

var myPond = new Backbone.Collection([goldfish, fugu, tuna], {model: Fish});
var pondView = new PondView({collection: myPond});
pondView.render()

Not showing model defaults in template

I have the following backbone application:
On the index.html:
<div class='content'></div>
<div class='container'>
<script type="type="text/x-handlebars-template"" id="product-template">
<h2>Products</h2>
<h3>{{ this.title }}</h3>
</script>
</div>
and the main.js:
$(function() {
var Product = Backbone.Model.extend({
defaults: {
title: "Title",
user_id: 0,
description: "Description"
}
});
var ProductView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: ".content",
initialize: function() {
this.render();
},
render: function() {
var source = $('#product-template').html();
var template = Handlebars.compile(source);
var html = template(Product.model);
this.$el.html(html);
}
});
var productView = new ProductView();
});
It's showing the "Products" heading, so the template is rendering but it's not showing the {{this.title }}. Unfortunately, there isn't any errors showing up in the console, either.
try this:
var ProductView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: ".content",
model: new Product,
initialize: function() {
this.render();
},
render: function() {
var source = $('#product-template').html();
var template = Handlebars.compile(source);
var html = template(this.model.toJSON());
this.$el.html(html);
}
});
to print it
{{ title }}

Sounds like you could use an itemView. This is when marionette comes in very handy.

This is my complete code with json data :
[
{"name": "Table 1","stts": "redstts","id": 1},
{"name": "Table 2","stts": "redstts","id": 2},
{"name": "Table 3","stts": "redstts","id": 3},
{"name": "Table 4","stts": "redstts","id": 4},
{"name": "Table 5","stts": "redstts","id": 5}
]
There is a typo in your addOne function. You should be creating a new "App.Views.Table" instead of "new App.Views.Tables" :
addOne: function(table) {
var tableView = new App.Views.Table({ model: table });
this.$el.append(tableView.render().el);
}
