Adding elements to object

Question

I need to populate a json file, now I have something like this:

{\"element\":{\"id\":10,\"quantity\":1}}

And I need to add another \"elemen

Answer 1

With that row

var element = {};

you define element to be a plain object. The native JavaScript object has no push() method. To add new items to a plain object use this syntax:

element[ yourKey ] = yourValue;

On the other hand you could define element as an array using

var element = [];

Then you can add elements using push().
