Check if input contains some value from database table

I do not know if I made myself clear in the title but I will explain again. I have the input where I will paste one string, so I want to check if contains some string:

var str1 = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP";
var str2 = "DEFG";

if(str1.indexOf(str2) != -1){
    alert(str2 + " found int the input!");
}

but this way I have to pre define the str2, when what I need is to compare with table values, imagine I have a table:

So now I paste the string and ajax goes into database returning the raws:

var str1 = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP";
var str2 = dataFromTable;

if(str1.indexOf(desc) != -1){
    alert("This is a " + name);
}

So any help would be great, does not need to be exaclty like that, only need to compaire value FROM database and return something. Thank you

Return data in Json format and loop through it using map and compare your strings :

var data = [{id: 1, desc: "banana apple orange", name: 'fruits'},{id: 2, desc: "batman superman finn", name: 'heroes'}];
var str1 = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP";

data .map(function(obj) { 
    if(str1.indexOf(obj.desc) != -1){
         alert("This is a " + obj.name);
    }
});

Hope this helps.
