pushing values in array ??

[PHPycho]

Hello forums !!
I would like to push the values in array(without specifying index).
Can anybody give me the suggestion.
Note: It should be equivalent to PHP's

$exp_array = array();
$exp_array[] = "value1";
$exp_array[] = "value2"; 

(without specifying indexes)
...........etc

Thanks in advance to all of you.

In Javascript you use the push method of the Array object:

var exp_array = new Array (); 
exp_array.push('value1');
exp_array.push('value2');

var exp_array = [];
exp_array.push('value1');
exp_array.push('value2');

Not supported by some older browsers, notably IE5. There are lots of replacements for it if you look for them on google.

I'm not sure why you don't want to specify indices. If you mean that you don't want to have to do:

var i = 0;
var a = new Array();
a[i] = 'foo';
++i;
a[i] = 'bar';
++i

etc. then this is an idiom I've seen used often:

var a = new Array();
a[a.length] = 'foo';
a[a.length] = 'bar';

Does that help?

I'd use push() too. By the way, it can take multiple arguments, so you don't have to make several calls to it on the same array in a row if you don't want to.

Not supported by some older browsers, notably IE5. There are lots of replacements for it if you look for them on google.

Here's one:

if(![].push){ // for old browsers that don't natively support Array.push()
  Array.prototype.push=function(){
    for(var i=0;i<arguments.length;i++) this[this.length]=arguments[i];
    return this.length;
  }
}
