javascript "associative" array access
- by cp
Hello
I have a simple simulated aarray with two elements:
bowl["fruit"]="apple";
bowl["nuts"]="brazilian";
I can access the value with an event like this:
onclick="testButton00_('fruit')">with `testButton00_`
function testButton00_(key){
var t = bowl[key];
alert("testButton00_: value = "+t);
}
However whenever I try to access the aarray from within code with a key that is just a non-explicit string I get undefined. Do I have somehow have to pass the parameter with the escaped 'key'. Any ideas? tia.
