Associative array in JavaScript
We can use associative arrays in javascript somewhat similar to PHP. Here is an example:
-
-
/* Declaring array in javascript */
-
var opensource = new Array();
-
-
/* assigning values to this javascript associative array */
-
-
opensource[‘cms’] = ‘Joomla’;
-
opensource[‘forum’] = ‘phpBB’;
-
opensource[‘blog’] = ‘Wordpress’;
-
opensource[‘os’] = ‘Linux’;
-
opensource[‘database’] = ‘MySQL’;
-
opensource[‘webserver’] = ‘Apache’;
-
We can navigate this array as
-
-
for(script in opensource)
-
{
-
//to get the key for each index
-
alert(script)
-
//to get the value for each position
-
alert(opensource[script]);
-
}
