thanks very much I wrote something similar and this makes me assure that I am correct.

I have the following input GFF3 format and I want to pars it in javascript code since I did not find available tools to draw the gene models from gff file. I found many differences in the gff3 files.. What is the important fields to extract in order to draw the gene models.
I want to extract these field in order to give it to Scribl to draw the gene ..
I want the output to be like this
Here is the file : GFF
and this GFF
Here's a jsbin that seems to work with both of your sample files (although I haven't checked very closely).
http://jsbin.com/cuy/1/edit?js,output
The parsing and drawing code is here
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
// Create Chart
chart1 = new Scribl(canvas, 770);
chart1.laneSizes = 18;
// grab gff data
var records = $("textarea").html().split('\n');
for (var i=0; i < records.length; i++) {
// ignore comments
if (records[i][0] == '#') continue;
// parse gff fields
var fields = records[i].split("\t");
var seqid = fields[0],
source = fields[1],
type = fields[2],
start = parseInt(fields[3]),
end = parseInt(fields[4]),
score = fields[5],
strand = fields[6],
phase = fields[7],
attr = fields[8];
// add gene to chart with desired attributes
var gene = chart1.addGene(start, end-start, strand);
gene.name = type;
}
// Draw Chart
chart1.draw();

Log in to answer this question.
"I have the following input GFF3 format ": where is it ?
I put the link .. but my question is based on the differences that I found.
Second link is not pointing to a GFF file. What differences are you seeing?
the number of the column is confusing some of the file they have 8 column while the other is less
There are lots of "available tools to draw the gene models from gff file." For example: the GenomeTools package (introduction) , the Bio::Graphics libraries of Perl or Ruby and Bioconductor's rtracklayer.
