multidimensional arrays, adding to Hi,
Can anyone help me with dynamically adding to a multidimensional javascript array that has an arbitary number of dimensions?
Something like:
myArray [5] ['aKey'] [4] = 'hello';
That code does not work unless the cells were populated when the array was defined+initialized. So you can't add new cells or dimensions like this. But how do you add them?
Thanks in advance.

You would need to do somethng like this:
The problem you run into with your way is that "hello" is an array of characters...so the elements of the array are 'h', 'e', 'l' 'l', and 'o'.
tmenu[3] = [["Departments", "#", "dropdown"]]; smenu[3] = new Array(); fmenu[3] = new Array(); smenu[3][1] = [["Administration", "#", "noFlyout"]]; smenu[3][2] = [["Human Resources", "#", "flyout"]]; fmenu[3][2] = new Array(); fmenu[3][2][1] = [["Home Page", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][2] = [["Employment Opportunities", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][3] = [["Teach in Iowa", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][4] = [["Info for Teacher Candidates", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][5] = [["Master Contract", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][6] = [["Iowa Teaching Standards", "#"]]; fmenu[3][2][7] = [["Non-Discrimination Policy", "#"]];
