@WolfShadeMar 25.2011 — You initialize an array with var variable_name = new Array();
At this point, you can put just about anything into it and reference it by either key or index
<i>
</i>variable_name[0];
variable_name[1][1];
variable_name["key"];
variable_name["key"][2]; // Not quite sure about this format, but the index should work
for(var i = 0; i &lt; variable_name.length; i++) {
x = variable_name[i]; alert(x[0] + " is " + x[1]);
}

Success!
