var obj = {key1: value1, key2: value2};
How can I add field key3

There are two ways to add new properties to an object:
var obj = {
key1: value1,
key2: value2
};
Using dot notation:
obj.key3 = “value3”;
Using square bracket notation:
obj[“key3”] = “value3”;
The first form is used when you know the name of the property. The second form is used when the name of the property is dynamically determined. Like in this example:
var getProperty = function (propertyName) {
return obj[propertyName];
};
getProperty(“key1”);
getProperty(“key2”);
getProperty(“key3”);
A real JavaScript array can be constructed using either:
The Array literal notation:
var arr = [];
The Array constructor notation:
var arr = new Array();
