Sep 23, 2006, 08:34 PM

Im a little bit new to javascript so please bear with me. In the script i am writing i would like to have some help in writing information into a series of 4 arrrays.
I have a series of arrays that list title artist album and time (in therry this is to be utilised in a mp3 type music player.
I would like to link these arrays to have differing information stored in them .
Any help would be fantastic as im realy struggleing here.
Im not sure how to define the global variables and how to link these arryays please help me

var titleArray;var;[9]
title[0] = "1";
title[1] = "2";
title[2] = "3";
title[3] = "4";
title[4] = "5";
title[5] = "6";
title[6] = "7";
title[7] = "8";
title[8] = "9";
title[9] = "10";
var ArtistArray;var;[9]
Artist[0] = "1";
Artist[1] = "2";
Artist[2] = "3";
Artist[3] = "4";
Artist[4] = "5";
Artist[5] = "6";
Artist[6] = "7";
Artist[7] = "8";
Artist[8] = "9";

Album[4] = "5";
Album[5] = "6";
Album[6] = "7";
Album[7] = "8";
Album[8] = "9";
Album[9] = "10";
var TimeArray;var;[9]
time[0] = "1";
time[1] = "2";
time[2] = "3";
time[3] = "4";
time[4] = "5";
time[5] = "6";
time[6] = "7";
time[7] = "8";

An array is defined by the syntax

var titleArray = new Array();
var artistArray = new Array(); etc.

Optionally the array constructor may take an argument to specify the number of array elements to create,

e.g. var titleArray = new Array(10); // ten elements indexed 0-9

Then you define the elements as you have done:-

titleArray[0] = "1" // not "title" - the array names must match precisely. [0] is the first element.

"I would like to link these arrays to have differing information stored in them." Sorry, not sure what that means. Please specify more clearly what you want to do.
