Strophe MAM how to display the messages?

Question

I have managed to use Strophe MAM to get the archived messages into the RAWInput, and display the last message(but only the last one). How do i display all the messages from the RAWInput?? But not just the last one?

And how do i extract who the message is from?

I have limited the messages to the last 5.

connection.mam.query("test3@macbook-pro.local", {
  "with": "test4@macbook-pro.local","before": '',"max":"5",
  onMessage: function(message) {


            console.log( $(message).text());




  },
  onComplete: function(response) {
            console.log("Got all the messages");

  }
    });

You can get all the messages using the `strophe.mam.js plugin

Here is my working code:

// Retrives the messages between two particular users.

var archive = [];

var q = {
    onMessage: function(message) {
        try {
            var id = message.querySelector('result').getAttribute('id');
            var fwd = message.querySelector('forwarded');
            var d = fwd.querySelector('delay').getAttribute('stamp');
            var msg = fwd.querySelector('message');
            var msg_data = {
                id:id,
                with: Strophe.getBareJidFromJid(msg.getAttribute('to')),
                timestamp: (new Date(d)),
                timestamp_orig: d,
                from: Strophe.getBareJidFromJid(msg.getAttribute('from')),
                to: Strophe.getBareJidFromJid(msg.getAttribute('to')),
                type: msg.getAttribute('type'),
                body: msg.getAttribute('body'),
                message: Strophe.getText(msg.getElementsByTagName('body')[0])
            };
            archive.val(archive.val() + msg_data.from + ":" + msg_data.message + "\n" + msg_data.to + ":" + msg_data.message + "\n");
            archive.scrollTop(archive[0].scrollHeight - archive.height());
            console.log('xmpp.history.message',msg_data.message);
        } catch(err){
            if(typeof(err) == 'TypeError'){
                try {
                    console.log(err.stack)
                } catch(err2){
                    console.log(err,err2);
                }
            }
        }
        return true;
    },
    onComplete: function(response) {
        console.log('xmpp.history.end',{query:q, response:response});
    }
};

$(document).ready(function)(){
archive = $("#archive-messages");
archive.val("");
$("#to-jid").change(function() {
            $("#archive-messages").val("");
            var to = {"with": $(this).val()};
            $.extend(q, to, before, max);
            // It takes around 800ms to auto login. So after this timeout we have to retrieve the messages of particular User.
            setTimeout(function(){
            connection.mam.query(Strophe.getBareJidFromJid(connection.jid), q);
        }, 1000);
        });
});
