[removed] Store Object as Fixed Value?

Question

I\'ve noticed this behavior when writing my JavaScript, and I haven\'t been able to figure out why:

Below is some code to reproduce the behavior in question.

Answer 1

Because you are setting the objects to the same reference point. You need to clone the object. here is a piece of code from http://www.thespanner.co.uk/2008/04/10/javascript-cloning-objects/ that allows for cloning of objects with prototyping.

Object.prototype.clone = function() {
  return eval(uneval(this));
}
alert("test".clone());
alert((3).clone());
alert(clone.clone());
