Question

I am developing a mobile app using JQuery Mobile. Wanted to know whether can i create a HashMap the way we can do it in JAVA, in JQuery Mobile?

If yes, then how? please if possible provide me some example.

Answer 1

In plain Javascript it is possible to create something very similar to a java HashMap:

var hashmap = {};

Put something in it:

hashmap['key'] = 'value';

Get something out of it:

var value = hashmap['key'];

For most purposes this will do, but it is not exactly the same as a hashmap, see for example this question:
