Is there a way to use variable keys in a JavaScript object literal?

Question

I have code like this.

var key = \"anything\";   
var object = {   
    key: \"key attribute\"  
};

I want to know if there is a way to rep

Answer 1

Well, there isn't a "direct" way to do this...

but this should do it:

json[key] = json.key;
json.key = undefined;

Its a bit tricky, but hey, it works!
