how can I declare a value deep in an object tree using variable properties in javascript
- by joshs
I am trying to have a javascript object tree behave like a php associative array in the following way.
var key1 = 'a';
var key2 = 'b';
var key3 = 'c';
var obj[key1][key2][key3] = 'd';
However, in javascript I believe you need to define each property/object pair individually, forming deeper leaves. Something like:
var obj[key1] = {};
var obj[key1][key2] = {};
...
Is there a way to simplify or shorten this script?
Thanks
