Thread: object literals with input text fields values as key values

so sorry I did not format it appropriately. Could someone please tell me how to modify the post? i cant see any option for that

You need to have minimum 10 posts to be able to edit a post. Klick "Go advanced" at the bottom, then you get buttons for formatting.
Unfortunately I do not completely understand what to do. Post the code of your inputs and an example what your object should look like.
You can create the fields of an object in the following way:

Code:

var obj = [];
var fieldname1 = "field1";
var value1 = "value1";
var fieldname2 = "field2";
var value2 = "value2";
obj[fieldname1] = value1;
obj[fieldname2] = value2;

Good morning
I have something like this now with two text input fields
The problem is that the syntax is not correct I do not know how to tell it it should assign the current value of a specific text field with a specific id to the variable so that I can assign it to the key value of my object.

Code:

$(':text').each(function(){
var firstName = $(this). attr('id Firstname').val();
var Address = $(this).attr('id address').val();
})

Is this what you need?

Code:

var obj = {};
obj.firstname = $("#firstname").val();
obj.address = $("#address").val();

where "firstname" and "address" are the IDs of your textfields.

thank you very much.
